Cut Required Field Release For Free

Required fields should be indicated with either a symbol or text, not just color. When providing an indicator for a required field, it should be placed right before the form field. This allows a screen reader to read the indicator to a screen reader user right before the user activates the field.

In your form builder account, click on any field in your Form Editor to open its Edit Field panel on the left side of the page. Tick the checkbox Required field and an asterisk will appear next to the label of the form field. The field is now required and visitors can't submit the form without filling it in.

When someone tries to register, they get the notification Please fill in all required fields even if they have already done so. They are only able to submit the form if all of the required fields are removed.

Press CTRL+A on your keyboard to select all the text within the document. Right-click, then click Toggle Field Codes. Press CTRL+SHIFT+F9 on your keyboard. This will remove the field codes, replacing them with the text they contained.

On the page layout Click on Setup. Go to Quick Find and enter Object. Choose the object. Under the Page Layouts section, Click on Edit on the page layout that you use on the object. Click the wrench icon beside the custom field that you will make required. Select the Required checkbox. Click on Ok, then click on Save.

When you make a field required, people must enter an answer to the field in order to submit their entry. When someone tries to submit an entry without filling out a required field, we highlight the problematic fields and display an error message to let them know the field is required.

After inserting a form field, click the Properties button to get its properties dialog, which is different from the one for content controls. Put the field's name in the "Bookmark" box -- that name is what the macro will use to identify the field. In the Exit dropdown, select the name of the macro (MustFillIn).
