Hi - sorry if this is a dumb question but it has got me stumped.
I have a field in a table (and also on a form from this table) for a "Description".
I want to ensure that some text is entered in this field by a user.
I tried the "Required" property set to yes - but the error message that pops up if text is not entered is a bit "non user-friendly"
What I am trying to do is either; change the error message text - or should i use the Validation property to ensure text is entered.
If I use the validation property method what is the code to ensure text is entered - i tried Like "" but it allowed a user so save a record that did not have any text entered.
Thnaks for any help or advice given.
