Hi Valery Silaev/Rohit

I have tried all the posibilities before posting this

problem in the forum.

Probably u didn't understand my question.

My requirement is i didn't want to enter anything in a

input field

only numbers should be allowed.

no special characters,no alphabets shoudld not be allowed(it should not be displayed in the input field when user presses any special characters,no alphabets)

Hi Ravi,

It is not possible in SAP NetWeaver '04

In SAP NetWeaver 2004s you can set the type of input field.

See the link below

You cannot restrict what is entered in the browser, the validation happens after submitting the data to the server.

Hi Venuthurupalli,

As valery has said once you select the value to be of type integer,once you perform an action it will be validated and error message that non numeric characters are there will be shown. If you want to set additional constraints like max value, min value etc you can use simple types for it.

On the project structure on left hand side under local dictionary ->datatypes->simple types create a simple type of type integer

The attribute which you are binding to value property ;make its type as simple type which you made

Hope this helps you

Venuthurupalli,

Bind IWDInputField "value" property to context attribute of type integer -- all validation occurs automatically.

P.S. Also it is only your 3-rd post on SDN, it is worth to read this: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/crphelp
