Disallow pressing spacebar in a textbox

[pingpang]

Good day to you!

I have a question, how can you disallow the user form pressing spacebar in a textbox? and another thing how can you limit a textbox input only for letters?

hoping for a reply soon. thanks!

Use the function "ONKEYPRESS". Everytime a user presses a key this function/Sub will be called. You can then check what key was pressed and then make the appropriate call if it is a alphanumeric key.

Hope this helps,

pingpang ,
Why don't U use Key_Press or Key_Down Events. For Example:
------------------
'Code here
If KeyAscii = .... then
KeyAscii = 0
End if
'End Code
------------------
That's simple, do you think so? Ofcourse, may be you have better method.
Good Luck

Why don't You use the onChange event of the textbox?
if you put his in Textbox.text = trim(textbox.text) hitting the spacebar won't affect the text.
A copy and paste-operation would let a space in though, it kind of depends on how idiot-proof you want to build your program.

You will need to use the KeyPress event:

Private Sub Text1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
If KeyAscii = vbKeySpace Then KeyAscii = 0
End Sub [/b][/i][/u][sub]*******************************************************
