Hi...am curious, in the VFP 7.0 table designer, there is a "Record validation" section for each table. Could someone give me an example when is this used?

Wouldn't the Insert and Update triggers be used to validate a record?

Doesn't the record validation section duplicate things that would normally appear in the field validations for each field?

Is this just an example of TMTOWTDI or are there pros and cons?

Thanks
