The Super Form allows developers to validate the data typed by the end users into the fields using various approaches.

This sample shows how to use a CompareValidator control to ensure that two fields of the form contain the same data. Use the Validators collection to add a CompareValidator to one of the fields. When setting the ControlToCompare property of the validator, use the DataField of the field that will be used in the comparison, preceded by the ID of the form and a underline.

In this sample we added a CompareValidator validator in the Validators collection of the "ComfirmEmailAddress" field, to compare it against the "EmailAddress" field. Thus, we set the ControlToCompare property of the validator to "SuperForm1_EmailAddress" ("SuperForm1" is the ID of the form control).
