Steven has a simple and effective approach to your problem. You may also
want, depending on your spec, want to allow the user to change current user
information. This can be done in the same manner by giving them the option
to update. Just another way to decide what the user is trying to
accomplish.

Subject: validation
i want to have a form where i can insert a new user into my database. and i
have that form but i want to be able to validate it before it submits this
new user into my database. i want to check to make sure the person doesnt
already exist. (it wont be me entering the data, so i dont want to have user
input errors if they dont search thru the drop down list before adding a new
person...resulting in duplicate people).
someone told me to look thru the custom tags and i did...but i really dont
see what i am looking for.
can anyone give me any ideas or some direction?
thanks for all your help,
bec.
