validating a textbox

[meena83]

hi, i have to enter a value in a textbox that
should accept only alphabets and not digits
should accept only 4 characters
the first should be caps and the other must be small
--how can i do this .

To restrict the textbox to these input conditions, impose these validations under the value change event of the textbox.

U can use max length property of textbox to resrict number of characters.
use keypress event of text box and manipuate the capital letter.

if the e.KeyAscii > Keys.0 or e.KeyAscii <= Keys.0
don't allow
else
allow and change the capitals by adding + 26 to ascii of small letter
