Validate Form Data Before Printing
« on: April 13, 2015, 08:44:12 AM »
Clarion 9.1 NT 8.33

I have a memory form with some fields.  The fields set the parameters that will be passed to a report via a start button on the form.  How do I go about making sure the fields have been filled in when the start button is clicked?

I'd like to run some simple IF/Then tests of the fields and if they are blank (not filled in) then I don't want to run the report but give an error message and return the cursor to the field in question.

Hi Mike,

I hide the Print button until all the required fields is completed with a refresh on each field for the Print button.
