This is probably the best option out there :

Not sure how KeyAscii gets to this Sub. Looks like it is a number already. If you are asking about how to test a value in a text box you can use the IsNumeric function.

That was VB 6 code, that the OP wants to 'convert' into .NET

I see . . .

Private Sub TxtWeekNo_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TxtWeekNo.TextChanged
' test to see if TxtWeekNo.Text IsNumeric
End Sub

I agree with your test for IsNumeric. The problem I can foresee here is the fact that sometimes special keys also needs allowance. Keys such as the Backspace, perhaps even the Delete key should be allowed. Another thing to consider here is the formatting of the numbers, ie, the presenting of them. Will decimals be allowed. Will a thousands-separator be needed and so forth. I was initially thinking about the Masked Edit Box, but decided to go with the VBForums link, as it is more useful at the end of the day
