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

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.

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.

Hi Battlecat

should just just be able to right click the control, then tick cannot be blank.

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.
