thank you. I had forgotten about those options as i'd never used them.  PUtting
it in the "all" list works. Great.  

Putting it in required only doesn't work. i guess it has to be in "all" list in
order to be required. Don't know if this is possible or worth doing but it
seems that any "required"'s could be added to the "all" list automatically
without any harm. It saves one from having to specify all just so they can
require a TEMP column.
