How to show an error if the user enters a value which is not in the dropdown of a form

Hi All,
I have attached the screenshot below and if we look at the field for claimnumber we have a dropdown which can help the users pick the available claimnumbers, but if someone accidentally types in a claimnumber that is not in the system( which doesnt show
up in the dropdown) the form is accepting that claimnumbers too, but i want to have a error or warning window popup saying that this claimnumber is not valid or something.
Can someone please help me with this?
Thanks.

Open the form in design view.
Select the Combo Box.
Set its Limit to List property to Yes.
If the user types a value that does not occur in the list, Access will display a standard error message:
If you want to display a custom message, you can write code in the On Not in List
event of the combo box:
Private Sub ClaimNumber_NotInList(NewData As String, Response As Integer)
' Undo the incorrect item
Me.ClaimNumber.Undo
' Display a custom error message
MsgBox "Please select a claim number from the list!", vbExclamation
' Tell Access not to display the built-in message
Response = acDataErrContinue
End Sub
where ClaimNumber is the name of the combo box.

    How to catch java.io.FileNotFoundException when a user enters a bogus jsp page. For example. I have a page called login.jsp. If a user enters log.jsp, the entire path is show and i get java.io.FileNotFoundException. This should not happen. This only happened since I upgraded to 9iAS. I tried send_error=true in zone.properties like i did when i was just using oracle http that came with database and it doesnt work. How are all you guys catching this?? I cant find any documentation. They say send_error=true will work, but IT DOESNT.
    Thanks for your time

  • How to show a error message to user from report.

    I don´t wanna to go in a form builder to create a simple form for just two inputs.

  • How to show custom error message in WebADI Excel template?

    Hi,
    I've  created a custom Web ADI integrator and associated it with a 'Procedure' based custom interface.
    WebADI Interface API Returns is set to  "Error Message".
    I'm using  raise_application_error(-20001, "Actual Error Message") for invalid rows,but custom error message from PL/SQL  is not populated on the excel template.
    Instead it is showing "SQL exception occurred during PL/SQL upload".
    Am I missing anything? How to show custom error message from Pl/SQL procedure to WebADI Excel template?
    TIA
    Narasimha

    The custom API errors are visible in the BNE log but not on the Excel.

    The troubleshooting C17 is the specific article.
    http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    This is generally a Lion error.. and you will need 5.6 utility to get access to the disk area.
    So download the real utility. Run it instead of v6 toy version.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Go to the manual setup, disk page and click on disconnect all users.. that will unmount all users connected to the disk and allow it to start working. But there are a number of other issues that are possible cause. Pondini lists some of them.
