Limit input to Text Box

P

PosseJohn

I want to limit the keys available to user to make input to a numeric field.

I want to do this be traping the KEYDOWN event.

If the user presses a key that I don't want them to use, how do I cancel the
KEYDOWN? Do I set the keycode to false?

I recommend setting the KeyCode to 0, not False, as this implies that the
value is of boolean type, whereas it's actually an integer.
