Disable validations called during WRITE? (OpenInsight Specific)

Is it possible to prevent OI from re-validating all fields in a form when its record is written? I have some types of fields in which the user-defined external format (OCONV) of a field will not necessarily pass its own validation (ICONV).

FYI, this is part of my attempt to enter/display only the descriptions of related records and not the keys.

Any hints?

TIA,

Alex,

First, it is a requirement that OCONV work on the output of any corresponding ICONV and that ICONV work on the output of any corresponding OCONV.

Second, if the first is true, you can have the validation portion of your code do an ICONV first.

Does that make sense? I'm not sure if I'm answering your question.
