Here is a new version of the checkFieldSet UDF. Brett found a few issues in my UDF. First - I accidently left in a hard coded form name, donations. This was from the project I was working on. Secondly, I thought there was no way to get the particular error message for a field. Brett showed that you could get it simply by using #f#.errorString, where f is the field name. He also showed that if you put 'Error' in your second argument in the alert call it marks it as an Error window.

So - I took his code mod and modded it some more. Now the error message isn't an optional argument - it is the combination of all the error messages in the current field set. (By that I simply mean the page, or tab/accordion.)

So - here is the latest version. Enjoy.
