I want to restrict users to enter only numbers in a textbox control. I have
written a code in keypress to prevent user to enter other than numeric values.

I have also read many places that I can use MaskedEdit Control. My questions
is why can't I see this control in my Toolbox just like I can see other
controls like textbox, radio button etc.

Thanks.

Hi,

..NET 2.0 will contain a masked edit control.
