Have another question different thread though.</p> <p>jw </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/required-fields-1#post-27364 Wed, 08 Jun 2011 17:43:42 +0000 Carl Hancock 27364@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yes, what you can do is when editing your drop down do this...</p> <p>- Edit your drop down<br /> - Check the Enable Values checkbox<br /> - Make the first drop down choice label say "Select A Breed" and leave the value for that empty/blank.</p> <p>Now if you have set that field to Required, and the option select has a blank value... it won't validate. So it will force them to make another selection. As long as the other selections have values, they can then select another choice. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/required-fields-1#post-27344 Wed, 08 Jun 2011 16:40:30 +0000 johnwade 27344@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm missing the part that forces a selection upon the user beyond what appears in the field by default. I have a list of dog breeds in alphabetical order. When the forms loads the breed "Affenpinscher" will be selected if they don't pick otherwise as it fills the field. Do I just insert a blank and the form then knows a required field has not been selected? </p>
