Title: Validating a Text Box Prompt
Post by: jb2321 on 02 Feb 2011 01:52:57 PM
Hi,
I have a text box prompt where users are required to insert a value between 1 and 320 for a comment code.  I would like to know if there is a way for me to validate that text box and make sure the user entered a number within that range.  We are on Cognos 8.4, any help would be appreciated.

Ahh yes, form validation - the bane of my existence. I'm so glad you asked.

I made a post about it - here it is!
