Thanks for those who replied.  While I think in my particular instance it would not cause problems, it is not important right now to implement it.  I have a check on submission that the fields are not blank and put up an alert sheet if they are and allow the person to correct.

I will look further at the suggested methods of handling this and implement a more detailed solution later.

Thanks!
