Hi Steven,
on keydown(me)
case the key of
RETURN, ENTER: me.mValidate()
otherwise: pass
end case
end

on mValidate(me)
tText = sprite(me.spriteNum).member.text
if tText.char.count < 3 then
beep
else
-- Do what you want to do with tText
end if
end
Your button can call the mValidate() command as well. The same rule about
at least three characters will then apply whether the user clicks the button
or presses Enter or Return.
Cheers,
James
