ya , you can do so by writing codes on OnValidate of the field which when left blank willl throw an error when the error message is executed

Hi,
Look at the help about the NotBlank property of a field:

NotBlank
Use this property to force the user to make an entry into this field, if the user has selected this field.

Applies to
Fields, text boxes

Comments
If you want to force the user to make an entry into this field before saving the record to the database, use the OnBeforePutRecord trigger for that purpose.

You can use this property together with the InitValue property to make sure an entry is made into this field. The system checks this setting for both the control and field during validation.

See also MinValue, MaxValue, and Numeric.

Don't put the code in the OnValidate trigger, because you are not sure that user always goes throuw the field.

Put the code in Form trigger OnBeforePutRecord , as recommended in Navision help (type F1 on field property 'Not Blank')...

Howdy, Stranger!
