Dan, How 'bout this. 1. Pre-define a varaiableSET VAR vINeedThisNoText REAL =
NULLSET VAR vCancel TEXT = 'Yes'SET VAR vContinue TEXT = 'No' 2. Create a
variable form with a DB-Edit and 2 buttons, CANCEL and CONTINUE3. Treat the
form as you would a dialog. So it looks like thisSET VAR vINeedThisNoText REAL
= NULLSET VAR vCancel TEXT = 'Yes'SET VAR vContinue TEXT = 'No'EDIT USING
MyDialogIF vCancel = 'Yes' GOTO DoneENDIF Jan

That is a good workaround. I was thinking the same thing. I was hoping on
something that would not allow not numeric entries in the dialog box. Dan

Since the format mask will not work for you then I maybe something like this.

It sort of works but looks weird with the spaces. Dan Goldberg From:

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Dialog format mask numbers and decimals I need to have
a dialog box that only allows numbers and the decimal. I am thinking the
format option will work but am confused on if it will. Has anybody done this
or have any ideas? TIA Dan Goldberg --
