I've been using ComponentOne TrueDBNumber in my projects up to now but want to replace this.
What controls do you use for numeric textbox? I need something with Min/Max/DecimalPlaces properties, spinbuttons, that doesn't allow invalid chars to be pasted etc. |

Ian, I still use the out of style,oldfashioned and always use a workaround MS Textbox with Updown control
 In my case I only need to set values between 0 - 9999 so it works nicely. Maybe if I replaced the controls with CJ's flatedit and spin, I don't need the extra code I have now. Never looked at it, I have greater worries with some other controls . |

I use the TrueDBNumber Version 6.
But I don't know an alternative with all the features I need: Min-, Max, Default-Value Decimal Separator Formatsettings for NULL, negative and positive values... Masksettings... SpingButton Calculator ... The only problem is that they don't look good if you change style with skinframe work. They look always the same. :( |

This features will not direclty supported.
With the FlatEdit, you can use mask's and pattern, but this will not prevent the user to type wrong characters.
In this case, the value is red underlined.
Before you can use the textproperty you have to check the IsValid-Method.
To prevent the user to type wrong characters you must use the KeyPress-Event and replace false values by zero.
KeyDown-/KeyUp-events are not applicable to do this.
But don't forget also the Arrow-Keys and or Backspace !

I've created a VB6 UserControl here:
https://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11326 It has Max/Min/DecimalPlaces properties, detects regional settings for decimal point and negative sign, spinbutton, doesn't allow invalid chars to be input or pasted, responds to mousewheel. It doesn't have number formatting or calculator. |

Yeah. I tried using the mask feature but that's not working for variable length numbers. If it did then most of the problem would be solved. What I really want is for CJ to support this type of thing - there seems to be a lack of alternatives to the C1 control. |
