I have a main form, which provides information about requests for room usage. (office symbol, poc.. etc)
It has a subform which collects:
(start date/hr enddate/hr) 1-10 occurrences.
Problem:
while testing the form, if I hit escape with no data in any fields (or esc & clear fields from main w/o ever going into the subform) I get the error "Start date required"... 4 times before the mainform will close.
I want the subform to only "require" data after all the fields in the main form are completed (& record written to primary file). After tabbing thru the main form, I want to be able to "Tab Into" the subform, thereby requiring the field "on_exit" to be tested... (I hope this makes sense)
.i.e. the "Start Date" is the first field in the subform, the on_exit event produces the above mentioned error.
Can someone help me resolve this (somewhat) annoying problem.
Thanks,
Tamra
