Dialog Programming one required field affects another required field

[Former Member]

I have two input/output filed whose dropdown is set as listbox. Both fields are required fields.

The problem is;

When I select an input from the listbox 1, an error occures that says listbox 2 is also required and must be filled.

How can I prevent the program to check listbox 2 is required, at the time I select an input from listbox 1 ?

Hi,

Did you assign function code to list box? is that your requirement? if not remove the function code.

Hi,

if the two list boxes are  required fields, obviously user has to enter two list boxes.

if you want to do it rogramatically, remove the required option from screen attributes, validate at PAI between chanin endchain.

Hi,

The issue maybe because you assigned a function code the list boxes that has been created. The function code will be put in the OK code (which gets created automatically for a screen) when the user selects an entry and as a result validation error appears.

Hope this helps,
