why oh why did i start this validation business lol

i'm sorry lynne i dont follow, i've tried a few different methods and i cant seem to get it sorted, could i trouble you to post using the code i've added what you think will get it throught the validation so i can see what i'm doing wrong??

thanks again for your help
