Is there a way to limit a text field to certain characters.
For example I need my text field to be limited to 1 character in length and to accept only Y,N,M or G
Thanks

Look at the form fields properties. Click the 'Options' tab and select the "Limit __ of" and set the size limit. You can then create a custom key stroke and format scripts to accept the characters and force to upper case. Alternatively you could use a combo box.
