Edit Validators Dialog Box

Use this dialog box to specify one or more validators for a component. Validators for a component are executed in the order they appear in the list in this dialog box.

To create a new validator for a component, click the New icon. The system adds the new validator to the application's validator set and makes it available to other components.
To add an existing validator to the list for a component, click the Add icon.
To edit a validator, select the validator from the list and click the Edit icon.

CAUTION: Be careful when editing validators, especially if you are editing a validator that might be used with other components. Editing a validator for one component affects any other component that uses that same validator.

To remove a validator from use with a component, select the validator in the list and click the Delete icon.

NOTE: Removing a validator here does not delete the validator from the system. It still exists and can be used with other components. To delete the validator from the system, you must use the Validators dialog box.

To specify substitution strings for the system to use for parameters during the execution of the validator, click the Parms (Parameters) icon. This opens the Edit Validator Sub Parms dialog box. To implement these substitution strings, you must specify corresponding parameters in the Inheritance > Parameters property field for the component.
To change the sequence of validators in the list (which affects the order in which they execute), use the Up and Down arrow icons.

When you are finished with your validator specifications, click OK.
