    Hello Arnold,

    This should be the default behavior of RadInputManager. Here is a simple demo:

    <%@ Page Language="C#" %>
    <%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %>
     
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
     
    <head id="Head1" runat="server">
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
    <title>RadControls</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server" />
     
    <telerik:RadInputManager ID="RadInputManager1" runat="server">
        <telerik:RegExpTextBoxSetting ValidationExpression="[0-9]{2}">
            <TargetControls>
                <telerik:TargetInput ControlID="TextBox1" />
            </TargetControls>
        </telerik:RegExpTextBoxSetting>
    </telerik:RadInputManager>
     
    Enter a two digit number or leave the textbox empty:
    <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" />
     
    <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="PostBack" />
     
    </form>
    </body>
    </html>


    Best wishes,
