Required field and canceling out of a page.

[Mufasa]

I have a page with required fields but also want a cancel button so the user
can stop doing what they are doing. Problem is, if I use a required field
validator and they then click cancel, it says the fields are required.

Any way around that other than writing the required code myself?

TIA - Jeff.

on the cancel button, set CausesValidation to false.
