Default Using outlook form to enforce field to be filled in

Hi all,



I'm working on a solution to have people insert the bin nr into the email so my automation tool will work. We receive plenty emails with bin numbers all over the place and even without it. My automation (that needs still to be finished) will look at the email and check the bin field and then do something with it (like move it to a particular folder). Apart from just 1 text field in the form (standard email form, but then with extra text field) I will need to add a combo box where person can also select the status of a case. Is there some code that In need to add some where to enforce that that field is filled in as it will not be able to send out without it?
(similar to the To... field, no email address given and you get a message box)

hope some one can help out with some info on how to get it solved.

Greetings.

Hi all,

I managed to solve this. When you insert a text field, just go to property for the text field and chose the tab validation and it will do the trick.

Greetings.
