Hello, Is there a possibility in Moss 2007 create conditional mandatory field in list? For example if I have a list of coins with the items: Dollar, Euro and I want that once the user selects a Dollar will be a mandatory field and if he chooses to Euro currency will have different required fields. Thank you Yuval .C.

Thanks for the quick reply, I'm looking for another solution. I want that once the user to select roughly one Dollar then fields will be required if he chooses Euro then another field would be required. Thanks again.

Hi sadomovalex, Thanks you very much.

I don't believe you can do this with OOTB SharePoint, unless you used multiple content types, like someone had suggested. However, this is something you could do with an InfoPath form.Planet Technologies || SharePoint Task Force

Using content types in this way is a difficult option when creating a new item, unless you want the user to choose the currency as the first step in creating a new list item. The reason: the content type field control does not appear on NewForm.aspx; it is chosen from the New menu on creation of the item. If that option works for you, then it's the easiest way to implement conditional required (or hidden, for that matter) fields. Of course, the problem on the implementation side may come from the fact that the content type can be changed on EditForm.asxp. If you don't allow editing, of course, that won't be an issue. Each of these can also be accomplished using jQuery in a Content Editor Web Part. With jQuery you can add a function to the click or change event of the Coin dropdown that hides/shows columns depending on the Coin selection. Additionally, you can add validation checking to a PreSaveAction() function in the CEWP, which you can use to cancel the Save commit unless the required fields (based on the Coin selector) are filled in. Let me know if you would like a more detailed walk-thru of these options. Blessings, Jim Bob
