I have a RequiredFieldValidator on a DropDownList but it fires even when I
click the cancel button. How can I ignore and still keep the required
validation if the user actually makes entries in the other fields. Thanks.

Simply set the CausesValidation property of the Cancel button to false.
Here's more info:
