    Data validation Problem

    Reply Contact
    I have a Text Box, DataType-Whole Numbers, I set a validation rule to Must be greater than 0. When I enter numbers, I get my validation error message. Any idea why valid numbers would be causing an error?

    Is that because the Data Validation is checking for >0 and displaying the message if it's >0? Maybe you want to say <=0... Just wondering. This should work fine. It's probably your condition is reversed or something simple like that.

    The correct Data Validation structure for only allowing positive numbers in the Data Validation dialog is:
    field x "is less than or equal to" 0

    This is because the dialog is asking you to give it the error condition. When invalid.

    This is easy to confuse. I do it all the time. :)
