I am trying to come up with a creative way to do soft validations both at the entity level and collection level. Consider the following:

-A mobile phone number and a work phone number are suggested. -The drivers license state is not the same as the state of residence. -The credit card expires in less than 30 days. -At least one form of identification is suggested.

Anyone care to point me in the right direction?

Thanks, Matt

Have you seen: http://www.llblgen.com/documentation/2.6/Using%20the%20generated%20code/gencode_validation.htm ?

Yes, but it seems like all that information is specific to validating an entity and not necessarily a collection.

To do a soft validation to warn the user, would i use IDataErrorInfo? Or create a custom type of exception so the application could handle them appropriately? The users still need to save the records, i just need a way to warn them.

Thanks, Matt

What type of app are you building? Web or Win?

3 tier Web

MVC or ASP.NET STD?
