ValidationRule Property (MDB)

ValidationRule Property (MDB)

Use the data access ValidationRule property to set validation rules for a Field, Recordset, or TableDef object by using Visual Basic.

You can also set validation rules for a field or control in the Microsoft Access user interface. Set the Microsoft Access ValidationRule property for a field or a table in table Design view. Set the ValidationRule property of a control by using the property sheet in form Design view.

In Microsoft Access, the string expression specified by the ValidationRule property of a Field object can't refer to user-defined functions, domain aggregate functions, SQL aggregate functions, the CurrentUser function, the Eval function, or queries.
