Conditionally preventing an item from being saved or edited.

[danielf]

As per the title really.

I want to conditionally prevent a user from editing a field. It's much like the 'avoid blanks' or duplicates option, except it needs to be a custom condition. If the condition is met, and the user attempts to save a record, I want to bring up a dialogue box that informs the user he needs to amend another field before he can save this record, and prevent the current record being saved. Is there an easy way of doing this?

Thanks,

Dan.

Dan,

You can create a function called nuBeforeSave().
