Reply Contact Now that I have my form working I need to tweak it. Is there any way to make a checkbox mandatory? I have two on the form, and only one has to be checked. It doesn't matter which one as long as one of them is checked before submitting.Thank you. 12-23-2014 04:23 AM In reply to sicky Joined on 03-01-2013 Posts 22 Re: make checkbox mandatory?

Reply Contact Hi Battlecat should just just be able to right click the control, then tick cannot be blank. 12-23-2014 04:39 AM In reply to BattleCat Joined on 11-25-2014 Posts 9 Re: make checkbox mandatory? Mark as Not AnswerMark as Answer... Reply Contact I did try that before I posted my question. The box for cannot be blank is grayed out. This would make sense since one out of two should be checked, not both. It is basically a disagree or agree to the terms check boxes. 12-23-2014 04:45 AM In reply to sicky Joined on 03-01-2013 Posts 22 Re: make checkbox mandatory? Mark as Not AnswerMark as Answer... Reply Contact What i would, do is make that a radio button with a set of 2 if its not already. You then should be able to make them cannot be blank. 12-23-2014 05:18 AM In reply to BattleCat Joined on 11-25-2014 Posts 9 Re: make checkbox mandatory? Mark as Not AnswerMark as Answer...

Mark as Not AnswerMark as Answer... Reply Contact Yea, me too. I do need to massage it a bit because if you check a box the submit button is usable, but if you uncheck it it is still usable. So a little tweaking and I should be good.Thanks for your efforts Page 1 of 1 (7 items) Copyright © 2003-2019 Qdabra Software. All rights reserved.View our Terms of Use.
Now that I have my form working I need to tweak it. Is there any way to make a checkbox mandatory? I have two on the form, and only one has to be checked. It doesn't matter which one as long as one of them is checked before submitting.
Thank you.
