Comment: this might be really simple, but im just wondering... how do i make it so text boxes in vb6 only allow numbers to be entered. ie, it will allow the input of 1 2 or 3, but if you try to type a b or c, it wont show up at all in the box this is for the input of ip addresses, and understandably, letters do not belong thanks,

Reply: (edit)If all the text box is going to contain then use the MaskEdBox. This is what it is designed for, forcing the user to input in a certain format. If you set the mask to 999.999.999.999 This will ensure than not only must users enter digits, but in the correct format format for an IP number.

Reply: (edit)...and I see my code also forgot to allow for entering the dots... I could post new code if you want, but as Stuart says, you're better off with the MaskEdBox
