mandatory field

Hi,

Is there a way to set a field in a form that unless they fill out that field they cannot fill out the rest of the form?

Thanks!!!

2 ways of doing this:

1. You make the rest of the fields wrapped in a subform and then set visibility of the subform so that only when field is non-empty the subform is visible, by setting property :
   • Subform.presence="visible".
2. You can set the access levels of the fields initially to protected and later only in case field is non-null enable users to edit the fields, using the access property:
   • TextField.access="open";           //"open" to unprotect the fields
