I don't know of any other method. When simple validation is used, it doesn't
leave any indicator in the UserProperty.ValidationFormula property.
However, the UserProperties collection will contain any standard properties
that have had validation set on them, so iterating that collection and
getting a list of the properties might provide a clue.

How can I check the valiation setting of a field besides the settings
dialog of a control?

Deleting the control won't change the validation setting, which is stored
as part of the property. If you've checked and double-checked the Subject
property, maybe the problem is somewhere else, on a different property,
perhaps even one whose control you removed earlier. That would certainly
fit the symptoms.

I did this several times. I even deleted the control an added it again
from Fieldchooser. Also it does not place the curso in any specific
control after the message.

I'd check and make sure that validation setting is really and truly
disabled. You wouldn't be getting the warning if it weren't still
active.

I enabled for the subject field that it requires content, but I
disabled it again. Any idea what I could do?

The symptoms suggest that one or more fields have simple validation
(i.e. require a validation) set on them, not necessarily the Subject
field. Did you perhaps add a field, set validation, then later remove
that field?

It's best never to use simple validation, but instead to use a
validation formula and an explicit validation message to the user
that gives the name of the field under validation.

Hi,

I have a custom form region in Outlook 2007 defined. It worked fine
as long as I only used Custom Fields bound to my controls. Now I
decided to use the "Subject" Field on the form. Since then. When I
create a new item and choose "Save and Close" I get an error message
that "one field on the form requires a value" although I have
entered a value into the Subject Control. I really have no idea what
the problem is.

All the best
Tom
