JTextField also doesn't let you set content type (unlike TextField in Java Microedition).
Use JFormattedTextField as James suggested. You will find it in NetBeans in Palette>> Swing Controls >> FormattedField. And to set content type in Properties look for formatterFactory and use drop down menu

I just played around with the JFormattedTextField and formatterFactory, and had a look at the API. The problem though, is that it formats the text after it has already been typed in where as my aim is to completely disable any other character except numbers. Is this not possible?
At the same time, to disable input once the 10th character has been entered (max length).
Thanks again,
-Ashton.

why not use a JSpinner?
EDIT> misread the question, just use a JFormattedTextField as said by the other two.

Hi majestic0110,
I think it's cool that you have 1,234 posts but you didn't read my previous reply as to why I can't use the JFormattedTextField.
Thanks,
-Ashton.
