Hi guys!!
How can I make a text box to be force to be entered only by numbers?
I tried using the IsNumeric command on the On keypressevent but still
it wont work? Am I on the right way doing it?
How could I make a text box to accept only a certain number of
characters? for example I want the text box to be able to accept only 8
characters.
Thanks, Enzo

Hi Enzo, you can do this by setting the Input Mask in the propertysheet
for the text box. You enter a hash (#) for each digit, for example if
you want the box to accept only four numbers you enter ####.
Hope this helps, Wes Kendrick

If you want to get real tough about what they can enter add some VBA code to the textboxes OnChange Event. You can
throw away any invalid character they type as this fires with every key they type or if they paste data into the
control. If you are going to throw away characters it is good to give the user some message to let them know when it
happens.

For both problems, you are trying to control something at input.
Look up 'InputMask' in Access 2000 - answers to both issues are clearly
stated.

Enzo,
<< ooops there stil a problem.........I can still enter "space" on the
text box >>
Don't use the pound sign # for your input mask. Instead, if you need e.g.
four digits and they're required, use the input mask of 0000. The mask of
#### signifies any optional digits OR spaces whereas 0000 are four
required digits only.
If you do use the 0000 mask, note that the user MUST enter leading zeroes,
e.g. if the number is "0059" the user MUST enter the leading zeroes, not
just "59" because that's only two out of the four required digits.
As for making the text box accept only eight characters, change the field
size property to 8 in the table's design view. Access defaults this to 50
for text. The max is 255.

enzo,
you can use the AfterUpdate Event to make sure that what's in the text
box is a real number and prompt the user if it isn't.
Example:
Private Sub Text1_AfterUpdate()
If Me.Text1.Value <> "" Then
Text1.Value =3D Trim(Text1.Value)
If Not IsNumeric(Text1) Then
MsgBox "This is not a numeric entry"
End If
End If
End Sub
Thanks,
Derrick Flores
