Is there a way (in Enterprise Explorer version 10) to make a field mandatory on a screen for all users.

I want to make a combo-box mandatory in Customer Orders for all users.

I know it can be made mandatory by RMB- Properties-Mandatory and  then selecting the object from the list but that only does it for the user who is currently logged in. It doesn’t carry across to all profiles. I want to make the field mandatory for every profile. But I don’t want to alter the Base profile or personal profile.

Is there a back-end table I can modify it in?

Why do you not want to modify the Base profile?  That would be the best/right way to do it.

If it is not a custom field I don’t know how else you’d do it using the screen framework like you are talking about.

I think the only other way would be to create a Custom Event that would not allow the user to save the record if that field was not filled in.

    I will use a custom event to achieve what I want even though I would prefer not to.
