validate input

[swmbo]

I have successfully created a feed-back form using fp2003. (I'm new at this so this is a big deal for me!
Now I would like to add code that will require the user to fill in ALL fields BEFORE the form can be submitted. I've looked through all the help info on FP, but that information is there, I don't recognise it..
Can you help

Thanks so much!
I knew enough to go to the "forms properties", but never knew one could double click on individual fields for info!!

I have it working now so the validation page comes up and lists those fields that must be filled in...but now I have another issue: once the user gets that validation page and clicks on "Return to Form" to fill in a missed field, the form is completely BLANK....meaning that the user will have to start all over. This could be a problem; most folks will simply click off rather than start filling it in again.

Surely there is something I can add that will leave the data in the fields that are already filled....?
