Valadating Check Boxes.. Possible?

Michelle A.

I have a 4 page form. First page has a series of check boxes of different
"opportunit ies" to select from.

These check boxes are optional but they have to at least select one (or fill
in the other text box) before they can go on to step two.

I tried to add a required field validate to this, however I am not sure how
this would work since I cannot select any of the check boxes from the
"ControlToValid ate" property.

Any other way of going about this?

I've included my html output...if you have any ideas,...
