# RangeValidator Control in ASP.Net

The [RangeValidator](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/33885/how-to-use-rangevalidator-in-asp-dot-net) Server Control makes sure that the entered user value or [selection](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/60/populate-records-in-second-listbox-according-to-the-selection-in-first-list-box) provided is between a specified ranges.It is possible to check ranges within numbers, dates, and characters.\

The validation will not fail if the input control is empty. Use the RequiredFieldValidator control to make the field required.

```
<asp:RangeValidator ID="RangeValidator1" runat="server" ErrorMessage="RangeValidator"></asp:RangeValidator>
```
