See my reply to Nadya - message #

Any valid Visual FoxPro expression -
not empty(FieldName) was just an example. The validation function EVALUATE()s any rule you write in the rule field. For more complicated stuff, I sometimes wrote a separate function, which I invoked from the validation table. But perhaps 90% of all validations can be done with simple expressions. In the latest incarnation, variables can be defined for later use. This allows simpler expressions, and avoiding doing the same lookup multiple times for several validation rules.
