Question about restriction

How do you make it so that you can type backspace in a textbox after you've limited the textbox to only numbers.

Thanks

Use the keypress method on the field in qustion to run the following (the second if statement should be modified if you don't want the user to enter "," or "." characters)

Code:

---



If KeyAscii< Asc("0") Or KeyAscii> Asc("9") Then
    If KeyAscii = Asc(",") Or KeyAscii = Asc(".") Or KeyAscii = 8 Then
      'nothing, we will allow these characters
    Else 'the user has pressed some key other than 0-9 or "," or "." or backspace
        KeyAscii = 0 ' cancel the character
        field.SelStart = 0
        field.SelLength = Len(field)
        Beep
    End If
End If

---

Look into the MaxLength property also.
