Keyascii

[fallnwrld]

Ok I have it set that only numbers will work in the text box using the code

If keyascii < 48 or keyascii > 57 then
keyascii = 0
Beep
End if


That works fine, however I want them to be able to use the "Backspace", how can I do that while still having this code or a code that prevents All those keyascii's listed, except the backspace.

Try this.

Private Sub Text1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)

    'If the Key is not Backspace then
    If Not KeyAscii = 8 Then
        If KeyAscii < 48 Or KeyAscii > 57 Then
            KeyAscii = 0
            Beep
        End If
    End If
                      
End Sub

Thats what i thought, and had....but doesn't work for some reason...weird, huh?

If KeyAscii < 48 Or KeyAscii > 7 and keyascii < 9 then KeyAscii = 0
Beep
End If

what do you think about that megatron?

Strange..See if this works. I've changed 8 to vbKeyBack which is exactly the same except this is a consant.

Private Sub Text1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)

    'If the Key is not Backspace then
    If Not KeyAscii = vbKeyBack Then
        If KeyAscii < 48 Or KeyAscii > 57 Then
            KeyAscii = 0
            Beep
        End If
    End If
                      
End Sub
