Is there a way to make a field required based on if any of previous questions is a certain value? For instance, I have 10 or so questions on a form that have the choice of "OK" or "Issue" to select from. Can I have a comment field at the bottom of the form be required if any of those 10 questions are answered with "Issue"?

You can accomplish this in Nintex Forms using a Validation rule on the Comments control. Here are the steps:
- Select the Comments control and add a Rule.
- Give the rule a Name (for example "Require Comments").
- Change the Rule Type to "Validation".
- Use the formula below in the Condition setting (red underlined fields are your question control names):
equals(Q1, "Issue") || equals(Q2, "Issue") || equals(Q3, "Issue") || equals(Q4, "Issue") || equals(Q5, "Issue") || equals(Q6, "Issue") || equals(Q7, "Issue") || equals(Q8, "Issue") || equals(Q9, "Issue") || equals(Q10, "Issue") - Add some text to the Message to display if the Comments control is required.
- That should cause the Comments field to be required if "Issue" is selection in any of the question fields.
+1Awesome! Got it to work, although for some reason I had to take out the "equals" in the code. Otherwise worked like a charm. Thanks!
