Click the Object Definition button in the standard toolbar or

in the Format menu to open the
Object Definition dialog box.
You can set the following object definitions:
•
Properties
tab: Select
Password
in the
Type
drop-down list.
Data entered in a Password field will appear on the screen as
asterisks. This protects user confidentiality, as shown below.
The data will be visible after submission to a location or
recipient.
•
Validation
tab: Deselect
Allow user to override validation
to force
data entry in the selected field.
Otherwise, users can choose to override the warning that
appears if they enter either no or inappropriate information in
a field (such as
five
instead of
5
in a Number field).
OmniForm Internet Publisher, unlike the regular version of
OmniForm, also contains a
Validation
tab for Check Box and
Circle Text objects.
