Exit Macro | Dot Templates

Arthi

Hi all,
I have a Dot template with some form fileds and table's in the template,
both Form Fields and Tables are all in diffrent sections.
The form filed sections is protected but the tables sections is unprotected.
The formfields are mandatory and i have assinged an ExitMacro to each form
filed. Now the Exit macro are not getting executed when the focus(Using
Mouse) is taken away from a form field( in protected section ) to a table row
in the unprotected section.
else the exit macro are executed and are working fine when the focus is
taken off from one form fiels to another using mouse.(in same Protected
section).

I have attached the Macro Below

Sub ExitMacroforTitle()
With ActiveDocument
If (.FormFields("Title").Result = "" Or
LenTrim.FormFields"Title").Result)) = 0)
Then
MsgBox ("Title is Mandatory")
.FormFields("Title").Result = "Please enter Title here"
End If
End With
End Sub

Is there any method by which the macro can be executed and i get the msgbox
if no data is entered in the formfiled.

Any help will be of great use.Thanks In Advance
Arthi

There's a simpler way of validating the fields at
http://www.gmayor.com/formfieldmacros.htm however the exit macros are
tripped by tabbing out of the field, whichever method you use.
