Hi,
This should always work, and has always worked:
Run If: (NOT 'Field' LIKE "[^ ][^ ][^ ][^ ][^ ][^ ]%")
Now the spaces seems a little redundant. In a client, you can not enter spaces
only, the client will truncate leading and trailing whitespace. API-programs
could send in leading/trailing whitespace though.
If you skip the non-space validation, you can use underscores to match anything:
Run If: (NOT 'Field' LIKE "_______%")
