    No, there's no "conversion" for legacy forms to move to new forms; you have to rebuild.

    Make sure your Rule is at the top is my next-best suggestion; I've had rules not working in the past and then by moving them; I see magic happen.

    Also submit a Support Ticket if moving the Rule does not work - verify this is a bug (or intended behavior).

Thanks for the fast reply. 

This is a Legacy form.  It is an existing form that I am adding functionality to, so it was not created via the new format.  Last I checked, there was not a conversion feature for existing forms.  Is that still the case?

I'll try out the idea of the formula field, but I do like the "in your face" aspect of the pop-up message in this case.
