Property Value
The group of controls for which the ValidationSummary object displays validation messages.Validation groups allow you to assign validation controls on a page to a specific category. Each validation group can be validated independently of other validation groups on the page.

When you specify a value for the ValidationSummary property, only error messages from the validation controls that are part of the specified group are summarized. If you do not set a value for this property, all error messages from validation controls on the page that are not assigned to a validation group are summarized.
This property cannot be set by themes or style sheet themes. For more information, see ThemeableAttribute and Introduction to ASP.NET Themes.
