That is UNREAL!  It worked. How did you ever discover that?  Really appreciate the tip.  Makes you wonder, though, what Adobe is doing.

Thanks for the reply, please see my latest comment below.

Thanks for the reply.  What I realized later is that I need the form to check if one of two check boxes is marked prior to clicking a Submit button in one section that comes later.  So I don't want the form to make the check boxes required because the first user does not need to check them.  So I pu...

It seems like the option to set checkboxes to "required" is not available in my LiveCycle form.  The Object/Value tab only gives me the "User Entered" option (in addition to "Calculated", "Protected", etc.).Is this always the case?  Does this have to be done through Javascript?

After looking at this script carefully, I was wondering what the triple equals sign does in the line:    if (isDate === false)I have only seen double equal signs, not triple.  Thanks.

I think I figured out the "or" vs. "and" function of && and ||.  So the only question remains about the final "else" statement.  Thanks.

Great, thanks!  I have two questions, I hope you don't mind:1. Why does one if-statement have "&&" and the other has "||"?2.  It seems like both conditions are already taken care of in the first two if/else statements.  What is the final "else" statement for?

I need help creating a script that will read through several fields, and if any one of them meets a condition (let's say, "Yes"), then Checkbox1 is checked.The pseudocode would be:If Field1 is Yes     or If Field2 is Yes     or If Field3 is Yes     or If Field4 is Yesthen Checkbox1 = checkedSo, a "Y...

[Hello, please see above.]The field is now displaying the current date by default.  Is there a way to just make it be blank for entry by user?
