    Resolved [RESOLVED] Name check in Textbox

    Hi, I'm trying have a text box on a form that requires a users name to be input as firstname.surname. How do I ensure a "." is added between their full name?

    Thank you

    Re: Name check in Textbox

    in the exit or similar event for the textbox1
    Code:
    if instr(textbox1, ".") =0 then
  msgbox "no dot supplied pls fix"
  textbox1.setfocus
end if
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed
