Forcing users to input data
Forcing users to input data
(OP)
Greetings,
I have a report when users enter a valid ID Number that will list a work list which corresponds to that ID number. How ever, if the user hit Enter without inputting ID number, then all worklist are returned: or let's say if users enter a non existing ID number, then the result is 0.
But, I would like the following to happen
1. If users forget to enter ID Number & hit enter, then
they will get a message saying : "Please Enter a valid ID
Number"
2. If users enter a non –existing Id Number then they will
get a message " Id Number Not Valid" "please enter a
valid ID Number"
Thank you in advance!

To answer the question, if this is for a Web application then Javascript verification ought to to do the trick.

If it is a standalone (Access data scree, for example) you would need to script it there.
