Assembly: Microsoft.SharePoint (in Microsoft.SharePoint.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Overrides Sub Validate
'Usage
Dim instance As NoteField
instance.Validate()
public override void Validate()

Remarks
In addition to calling the base Validate, this override ensures that, if the note is for an item in a document library, the note complies with the library's length limitations for notes.
Notes to inheritors
Value() is the value of the control in the UI, not the underlying value (which is the ItemFieldValue property of the SPFieldMultiLineText object that has the NoteField as its FieldRenderingControl property). Use Validate only when you need validation of the UI value. To validate ItemFieldValue, use GetValidatedString().
