pull down

[Joel Allen]

Hi,

How can I force the user to select something in one of my pull downs? I've
used validation, but it doesn't work.

THanks,
Joel

Try setting Limit to List to Yes.

"How can I force the user to select something in one of my pull downs?"

Depends on what you mean by the above statement.

If you mean that you only want them to pick an item that is already in the
combobox, then Laura's suggestion of setting Limit to List to Yes is on
target.

If you mean that you want to make sure that a selection is made from the
combobox, then validation is what you need. What code have you tried and in
what event?
