Validating Drop-Down or Mutually Exclusive Check Boxes
I have a form created that utilizes check boxes to select one of three
options. I was able to create the macro that would allow only one box to be checked. Is there a way to require that an option is selected before moving to next field? I also played around with a drop-down field to accomplish this. How would I create a 'blank' or 'select one' option that if is not changed to one of the drop-down items, I will not be able to move to the next field? Any feedback or guidance is greatly appreciated! |

Validating Drop-Down or Mutually Exclusive Check Boxes
Hi ?B?U2FuZGlL?=,
I have a form created that utilizes check boxes to select one of three options. I was able to create the macro that would allow only one box to be checked. Is there a way to require that an option is selected before moving to next field? I also played around with a drop-down field to accomplish this. How would I create a 'blank' or 'select one' option that if is not changed to one of the drop-down items, I will not be able to move to the next field? I assume you got the code you mentioned from word.mvps.org? Check that site for an article about data validation in forms, as well. If you need help with this problem after reading that article, post in the word.vba.general newsgroup.
