We use error messages with substitute variables as in the following: Is it possible to display error messages using the error messages property with substitute text? When I try and enter an error message ID with substitute text I get the error "Message Text and Message Id are mutually exclusive. You may not select them both".

Thanks,
Alan

Random guess - should you not use the 'Replacement Data' field and bind it to your field?

That's correct... use Message ID, Message File, Library & Replacement data.

"Message Text" is designed for applications that do not want to use message files, but instead want to just pass a string from their programs. "Replacement Data" is for filling in the substitution data in a message description.
