Re: Validation rule with yes/no and number

 

Sorry, forgot to reply to your earlier suggestion Jason. Agree that it is no really necessary, but it can be difficult to convince people of that…

As for the compulsory pair, I though that would only ensure that there is some value in both fields - but what I need is to ensure that if A is «no», the B SHOULD be empty - and if a is «yes», it should NOT be empty. Can I do that with a compulsory pair?
