Build Script Issue- Building If???

[Joe Blake]

It occurred to me the script submitted in Tutorial Error#3 was generated by eBase.

This was in Building a Database Form, Part 2.

Is this on a bug list?

Would most developers not use the BUILD SCRIPT TO VALIDATE FIELD, and just write this script themselves?

Or, am I going to learn much better ways to validate, as this one is actually quite weak in how it displays the "non" validation message?

Personally I tend to build all the scripts myself. I would not be surprised if most developers do this since we tend to like formatting and doing things our way and not have it pre-generated for us.

The bug in the script builder has already been fixed. It'll be released in the next service pack.

I write my own scripts so I can maintain naming conventions (and I also use Javascript).

Validation has various solutions and is a subject worth investigating, my guess is that you will find your own personal solution different to the one in the tutorial, depending on your specific requirements.
