Control content of text boxes on a userform
 

I am aware of data validation in cells to force text or
numeric values. Is there a way of doing this in a
userform text box?

You can assign the value of a textbox to a numeric
variable, but this is too late when you have clicked the
OK button

Any help gratefully received

well, you could try the same thing for OnChange event for tha
particular testbox. So whatever validation you do after clicking OK
you do it in the OnChange event

Hi Angela,
A way of making:
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
Me.TextBox1 = CleanChain(Me.TextBox1)
End Sub

Private Function CleanChain(Chain As String) As String
Const Cars As String = "0123456789,."
Dim L As String * 1, i As Integer
For i = 1 To Len(Chain)
L = Mid(Chain, i, 1)
Select Case L
Case ",", "."
L = Application.International(xlDecimalSeparator)
If InStr(1, CleanChain, L) Then GoTo 1
End Select
If InStr(1, Cars, L) Then CleanChain = CleanChain & L
1: Next i
End Function
