For instance I have an entry field that is pictured like this: 99-99 I'd like to require that all four numbers are entered or you would receive a message and the characters would disappear.I tried if len(entryfield) < 5 on change but nothing happens. Hope I explained this ok. Appreciate any help. Show us the code. That's the only way we can tell if what you're doing is working ... You may want to use valid instead ... just a thought. Take a look at the information in help for valid for an entryfield.
