I would say design change. Sounds like you'd be better of using an option
field.

Otherwise, lots of IFs.

Subject: Best method to determine if more than one field not blank

I have four 1 char fields and I only want 1 of the four to be able to
contain a char at a time. I could check each field after it
returns from the
screen and add 1 to a variable if it is not blank and if the variable is
greater than 1 return an error.

Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks,
Bob B
