I'm having problems with the required field option in my table. I have a form that writes to the table and has a validation of the fields built in the code. If the validation is true, then it will allow the record to be saved.
However, I've also set those same fields in the table to be a required field. Whenever I enter data in those fields in the form and click the save command button, I get a message back telling me one of the required fields cannot be null. The thing is, it is not null. I entered data into the field through the form. Whenever I change the required field option to no in the table the problem goes away, but shows up on the very next field in the list that is set to yes.
Validation occurs within the form that writes to the table, but I still would like to have the security of knowing the fields are required in the table as well, just in case someone tries to be sneaky and go directly into the table to enter/modify data.
Is there something I'm missing? Is this a bug? I've actually set up another database the same way and don't have any problems with it. I'm not sure what's going on. Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks,
