I have a form that I have created to put in a confirmaton number, credit card
number and CID number. I have set the text boxes to accept only a certain
amount of characters but is it possible to set the text box to only accept
numbers. No letters could be typed?

Thanks,

If it is a formfield in a protected form, the answer is "yes." The setting
is in the field properties. This is what Word calls an "online form." Check
this in help. For more about online forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles.

Hope this helps,
