Default simple validation formula required

can anyone pls help me with a simple validation formula I require.

I need to restrict entry into a cell for just 5 numerical digits (no
alphabetic characters)

i use the LEN function to make sure that the number of digits is exactly
equal to five, but don't know which function to use to restrict alphabetic
and other characters.

please help
thanks
