[Solved] Making a Column a Required Field

[Peter Maslin]

hi

i have a standard grid with a series of columns in it i.e GridDropDownColumn, GridBoundColumn etc.

i want to know if there is a way of making the column a required field and validate it as such.

i am creating the columns programatically.

i know you can do it with a template column , but i dont want to have to create template columns for all the fields that require validation , there must be a simpler way to make a column a required field.

just to clarify this is for the insert/edit modes of the grid i need to validate the fields for.

thanks for your input on this.

Peter.

Hello Peter,

Check out the following help document which explains on how to add validators to bound columns in your grid:
Validation
Probably this should help you achieve the required.
