Hi,
Newbie.. Would like to know how should I validate a decimal number in a textbox?

Can you show us the code? I have used IsNumeric (in VB6) and it handles decimals just fine.

I created a new project with a single form, added a textbox and a command button, and inserted this

Private Sub Command1_Click()
  Debug.Print IsNumeric(Text1.Text)
End Sub
 
A few sample results...
 Input   Output
Text1   False
123     True
123.45  True

Um... if the problem persists, try checking your Regional settings in Windows. Perhaps the decimal is different to what you (or VB) expect.
