Hi Abraham,

Try the below steps.

1) open the properties of the 'Input field'

2) Select 'Validation' tab.

3) Add one condition and set Condition='Contains' Value= '1' Error message = 'No numbers or symbols'

4) Add another condition and set Condition='Contains' Value= '2' Error message = 'No numbers or symbols'

5) Continue for the steps for numbers and symbols which are you don't want to enter.

Hope it helps...

Hi Basheer :

I did that, it's function good for numbers, but what's up whit special characters like "$&%!@)(", i try to validate this with regular expressions but i don't know how to do it,

When i try to validate the input field as you said it is good but when try to validate more characters (around 20, numbers and especial characters) i have an error 32k or 64k

Do you know how to validate this with regular expressions.

Please help me.

Thanks.

Hi Abraham,

You can use the condition='not contains' and value= [ use ascii value limit for characters] error message = "..."

It will take only characters not numbers and special characters.

Abraham,

There is no such a method to check the availability of numbers and special characters in input field. You can make it as possible by checking for individual numbers and also for special characters.

Use the step I've given for numbers also for the special characters.

For example,

Condition='Contains' Value = '%' Msg='No special characters'

Condition='Contains' Value = '@' Msg='No special characters'

.........

.........
