table check box mandatory

you can’t of course use the ‘mandatory answer’ on the table as that will only check to see that table HAS been answered and won’t know what was done in each Row

but running a behaviour on the appropriate event (maybe in your case the ‘table row has lost focus’) that then checks to see at least one of the check boxes is checked, and if none are then ‘show message’ to user may do what you need

Alternatively you could run this validation elsewhere where you can programatically check each row one at a time.

Refer to the user guide about working with tables:

The sub section explaining the SetTable Row function would be relevant here and will give you a lot of control on how you can manage tables

Having said that, where you say this table has 25rows.. I wonder if you may be better off not using table but use Check Box Groups and text input fields where you will then be able to use the default ‘mandatory answer’ on the check box object

Guess it depends if you are ‘under pressure’ to get this done quickly? seeing how you could do this ‘validation’ in the table on a ‘row by row’ basis could be worth checking out as once you can see how that works (ie how you can ‘scroll through’ each row in the table and do things here like ‘check current row’) you will more than likely find that this ‘technique’ has so many other users that you may need in the future as you get to more complex processes, but for the ‘quick and easy’ if you need that, then setting up ‘groups’ using the checkbox object will be way to go.

if you do go to look at working in the table, I’d suggest that you don’t do it on this form where you probably have a lot of other things going on to start with, but set up a small ‘test’ form where you only have the table object.. then its quicker/easier to see what it does (ie you can just ‘preview’ the form and enter in some content and then run your ‘script’ under a ‘button’ on the form)
