Hi All,
I have a validation page for a form.
One of the fields is a drop-down list, where the default option is "Please select from list"
My validation code is:

Code:

<% IF Request.Form("Summary") <> "" AND Request.Form("Details") <> "" AND Request.Form("Rep") <> "Please Select From list" THEN

and form is validated.
But I don't think this is correct:

Code:

Request.Form("Rep") <> "Please Select From list" THEN

What I'm trying to achvieve is if "Please Select From list" is passed, this is not valid, so I need the code for

Code:

 
Request.Form("Rep") = "Anthing other than Please Select From list" is valid.

As usual, your guidance is very appreciated!

Seems okay to me.

What are the actions if the form is valid vs. invalid?

Hi Adam,
I have given the "Please select from list" a select value of "0".
The validation will now check that the value is not 0 and process correctly.
Seems too obvious really!
