Hi everybody,
I have a form level validations of Date field. If date is 6 months older than the current date, the message is displayed and the date must be fixed before proceeding.
Now the user has a requirement, that in some cases we want to allow these old dates to go through. So, I'm thinking about new form's property ByPassDateValidation. I will ask a question in form's method, which verifies dates, and then set this flag accordingly.
My problem is, I don't want to ask this question everytime. I want to ask once and then use whatever answer the user provided.
I don't see a way to solve this problem without using another form's property lFirstTimeAsked. This seems to be an overkill.
Do you see a simpler way?
Thanks in advance.
Ok, while writing I found a way: instead of Logical use numeric (1 - ByPass, 0 - Use validation) and leave this property to be .f.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
