 * Hi There –
    I am using Form Maker and have successfully linked form submission
   to a SQL database. I don’t want there to be any duplication of entries in the
   database so I set the submission field to be UNIQUE in the databases structure.
   This works and does not allow a duplicated entry to be updated in the SQL database.
 * However, upon submission of a duplicated entry the (form submitter) user does
   not get a notice the database did not get updated “because the value was already
   in the database”.
 * Is there a way to alert the user / submitter that he/she tried to enter a duplicate
   entry?
 * Thanks for any help.
 * Regards,
    Brad

 * Hello Brad,
 * I am very sorry to get back to you this late.
 * Dear Brad, for which field type you need this feature? For some of our field 
   types we have an option** Allow Only Unique Values** when enabling this, the 
   user cannot submit the duplicated value and gets an alert message.
 * Please see the screenshot and check whether for your field type we have this 
   option [https://nimb.ws/QRMc8s](https://nimb.ws/QRMc8s).
