Required field

[brbarto]

I am getting the following message when entering data in a rental form. I get the message when I enter the VehicleNumber(combobox). The PickupDate is further down on the form and yes it is required. It will allow me to continue entering.

"The field tblRental.PickupDate cannot contain a NULL value because the required property for this field is set to true. Enter a value in this field."

Thanks

Hi!

Without knowing all of the details I can't be sure about what is happening, but I do know that if you try to tab into a subform before filling in a required field then you will get that message. If the form has a subform then you can check the tab order to see if subform follows that combo box.
