    According to above question the sequence should be like

    • Set the ErrorMessage property of the validator control to the detailed message.
    • Set the Text property to an asterisk (*).
    • Place a ValidationSummary control at the top of the Web page.

    ValidationSummary control enables you to display a summary of all validation errors in a page. This control is useful when working with large forms. If a user enters the wrong value in a form field that is located at the end of the page, then the user might never see the error message. ValidationSummary control always display a list of errors at the top of the web page.
