The textbox class raises it's own validation events. So in the on validation event handler do a test for numeric values, if not you can display a message box and cancel the event.

there is an out of the box validator, like the RangeValidator, or you can create your own. Here's a tutorial on validators: http://www.devhood.com/Tutorials/tutorial_details.aspx?tutorial_id=46

Validation

I'm using VB.NET and need to cancel an event if the entry is not numeric.

I used e as System.Component.CancelEventArgs
I used e.Cancel = True

But it just seems to hang on the text, rather than cancel.

Ex: I enter SA instead of a number into a combobox.
I want the combobox to simply cancel the entry of SA. If there was a number in there previously, I want that number to stay.
