Hi all,

I have a non-empty validation set on a field, and have set it to
Strict. I have a script that blanks the field, and what I'd like to
happen is have FM (when the script is done) compain that the field is
empty... but it doesn't. I even tried Goto field with the perform /
select action specified (thinking it should enter edit mode).. but no
luck.

Any ideas? This is version 6v4.

Thanks
Andy

Scripts are in the developers domain and will therefore override any
field-level validation you have in place. If you really want to cause
your own errors, you can do so using the Paste or any of the Insert
script steps. Paste and Insert steps require that the field be on the
current layout when the script runs and they behave as though the user
has manually entered the data.
