** Randy - The way this could be done is to create 2 AL's and 1 zTmp field: Create a hidden zTmpField (Character) on the form. 1st AL - Execute on Button Click (Search button I suppose) RunIF: (none) Action - Set Fields Set zTmpField = LENGTHC($SearchField$) 2nd AL - Execute on Button Click (Search button) RunIF: 'zTmpField' < X (where X=your number count) Action - Message Error: "You must enter X characters in order to search" (or something like that!)
