Isnumeric Function & keydown

[LDiver]

I am trying to per textchanged in a textbox call an isnumeric function. I cant seem to get it to work.

function:
[ Private Function IsNumericCheck(ByVal CheckVal As String) As String

'check for numeric values and return boolean

If IsNumeric(CheckVal) = False Then
Return False
Else
Return True
End If

End Function]

text changed
[Private Sub tHeight_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tHeight.TextChanged

'set variable
CheckVal = tHeight.Text
'call isnumeric function
IsNumericCheck(CheckVal)

If False Then
MessageBox.Show("Only Enter Nunmeric Values")
End If
End Sub]

instead of checking all the time the whole text you can use this code:

Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress
        If Not Char.IsNumber(e.KeyChar) Then
            e.Handled = True
        End If
    End Sub

this will allow only numbers beeing written in the textbox and ignores everything else

The probleme here is when we want to remove a number using "Delete Key" they'll not delete because it's counting as a alphabet So We should have a Soulition here to this problem :)
