On the Validation tab there is a field for Error Message Expression. That's
where you need to put your message. It could be a literal such as 'Please
enter a date in mm/dd/yy format'.
I want to make the data window column specification property within the DW
painter send out a more 'english', user friendly message. Can someone give
me an example of how to do it in the DW painter, Column Specification,
Validation Message. I have this in Validation Expression - isDate(
GetText() ) - getting Value Required for this Item standard Information
Messagebox. Thanks for any help. I found help in the ref book but don't
understand what they mean and they don't show me a print screen shot.

Jerry, thank you for the help. Excuse my ignorance, but I do not see a
field called Error Message Expression in my Data window painter. I click on
the sle_ and get the column specification properties, Validate Expression
and Validate Message, which is just an expression builder. Do I build the
message in there? I'm using PB 7.0.3. Thank you. (I'm just a rookie)
