Validation Summary Control

Dayekh

Hi, I am trying to summarise all the errors from all fields. For example, I have one Required Field Validator Control and one Validation Summary Control. The Error Message property for the Required Field Validator is "Invalid Date Format". When an invalid Date is entered, BOTH the Required Field Validator Control AND the Validation Summary Control show the error. I want THAT error message to show on the Validation Summary Control and NOT on the Required Field Validator Control. Any ideas? Thank you.

make the RequieredFieldValidator Enabled=false

I set Enabled to False and that disabled the validation completely lol. I discovered that all I had to do was add : Text="" and it worked! Thank you for your reply :-D There is another problem now :( I have 3 Date Fields. When one of them is invalid, ALL the error messages are displayed. I only want the erroneous one to display. The others are fine. Any Ideas? Thank you. EDIT: OMG! ALL three validators were validating the same textbox lol. What a noob mistake! It's sorted now. Thank you for all your replies! -- modified at 8:36 Tuesday 28th November, 2006

Make errormessage property of required validator blank or give only space

If I do that, then the Validation SUMMARY will not show the message. I needed the message to be on the summary, but not the validation control itself. It's OK, I solved it now.. but I have another problem. Look above. Thank you for replying.

Erhm, strange that the required field validator shows a message although the user did enter a value in the field... I think something else is wrong, since a required field validator should only show a message when the field is left empty.
