I'm not sure what you are asking about, but if you don't want numbers and you allow user to type any two letters then use this:

Private Sub Text1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
    If IsNumeric(Chr(KeyAscii)) Then
        KeyAscii = 0
    End If
End Sub

Also set TextBox's MaxLength property to 2

Or if you know what two letters you want the user to enter (for example if you want them to type C for Credit and D for Debit) and you want the user to enter only one letter on a time then use this:

Private Sub Text1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
    If (Chr(KeyAscii)) <> ["Enter Your First Character"] or (Chr(KeyAscii)) <> _
    ["Enter Your Second Character"] Then
        KeyAscii = 0
    End If
End Sub

And set MaxLength Property to 1
