    Hi.

    If a question is answered 'no', I don't want the person completing the form to be able to submit this form. I want text stating that since the answer was 'no', this form can't be submitted. How is it best to do this?

    Thank you.

    Hi CFPBMC,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Your requirements can be achieved by using the Show/Hide Field conditional logic to hide the Submit button and show a Paragraph element displaying the error text when the selected answer from a field is No. Let me show you how:

    1. Click Settings in Form Builder.
    2. Go to the Conditions tab.
    3. Add a condition and select the Show/Hide Field conditional logic. How to hide the Submit button if a question is answered to No? Image 1 Screenshot 40
