Thank you for your help.

Is there a way to highlight the textbox in red if the condition is false?

Thanks,

hi Shraddha,

you will need to have as many labels on the form as there are fields. and have conditional formatting on the labels according to the data required in the respective field.

I'm newbie infopath user. I'm not able ot implement the logic.Could someone please help me to implement the logic?

Since the vast majority of my forms are browser-enabled, and since both the "Cannot be Blank" and Data Validation messages are extremely annoying in browser mode, I don't use either. What I use is a back-end validation method that uses conditional formatting to disable my submit button until all required fields are completed or are properly filled out. I manually place red asterisks next to the LABEL instead of in the control box, and I place an obvious message saying that all fields with red asterisks must be filled out in order to submit. This helps me avoid two things: annoying popups that get in the way, and my users never get an error after clicking submit (because they can't even click it unless it's a valid form).

Thanks,

-Shraddha
