Hi Charles
I'm a little confused about your requirements. Did you want to allow decimals
or not? Here's some code copied from one of my behavior scripts. You only need
to modify the one function to impose whatever data entry limits you like:

Not perfect but should get you started...
on keyDown theKey
put "0123456789" into tKeys
if tKeys contains theKey then
if length (me) < 3 then
put theKey after me
end if
end if
end keyDown
