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,
