heya.
4 ctrls
Status (RadComboBox) ("Regular","Temporary")
LblEnddate (Label)
EndDate (RadDatepicker)
rfEnddate (required Field  bound to Enddate)

If all visible set to true, field is required, however when visible = false, field is not required...(logical)
 Protected Sub Status_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal o As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.RadComboBoxSelectedIndexChangedEventArgs)  
        If InStr(e.Value, "Temporary") Then  
            frm1.FindControl("Enddate").Visible = True 
            frm1.FindControl("rfEnddate").Visible = True 
            frm1.FindControl("lblEndDate").Visible = True 
        Else  
            frm1.FindControl("Enddate").Visible = False 
            frm1.FindControl("rfEnddate").Visible = False 
            frm1.FindControl("lblEndDate").Visible = False 
 
                  End If 

the ajax block
  <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="Status">  
                       <UpdatedControls> 
                           <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="lblEndDate" /> 
                           <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="RFEndDate" /> 
                           <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="EndDate" /> 
                       </UpdatedControls> 
                   </telerik:AjaxSetting> 

the visible switch is working fine... however the requiredfield event is not raising. Thoughts ?

Thanks

Hello mac,

Please note that ASP Standard Validators on the client are officially not supported with Ajax.
However please try to add the Validators into the RadAjaxManager settings. The validators and the corresponding controls should be updates together.

Sorry.. I am not getting this. I redid an extremely dumbed down sample to post here and get the following errors/odditites back. 
RFDate (required validator) is disabled
RadDatePicker is visible =False

if user selects Regular from combo box, page posts back. If user selects temporary, rfdate and radDatePicker are enabled and Visible. (this works.... the first time...
once the page is posted back however, the SelectedIndexChanged event is lost ??  This may appear quite simple however the answer is deceiving me.
