I have a RadNumericTextBox defined as follows:
When users enter a number that's out of range (e.g., 77777777777777), the text turns red and a yield sign appears in the control when focus is lost. When the user saves the object, the control's value is set to null and therefore, our validation isn't executed on the code-behind.
I checked out the properties of the control and see there's an .Invalid property, but when I check it's state in the code, it's set to false.
How can I check to see that the control is in an invalid state programmatically?
<telerik:RadNumericTextBox ID="txtMaxCost" Runat="server" MaxLength="14" Width="250px" Type="Currency" SkinID="OverrideRadDefaultSkinWithNonExistantSkin" AutoPostBack="true" Enabled="true" AllowOutOfRangeAutoCorrect="false"><NumberFormat DecimalDigits="2" KeepNotRoundedValue="False"/></telerik:RadNumericTextBox>When users enter a number that's out of range (e.g., 77777777777777), the text turns red and a yield sign appears in the control when focus is lost.

Hello Matt,
When an invalid value is entered in RadNumericTextBox it is not submitted to the server. If you need to submit the value in the RadNumericTextBox control only when it is valid you can use RequiredFieldValidator control.
The following markup illustrates the approach:
On a side note, have in mind that RadNumericTextBox supports values that are between - 2^46 and + 2^46. In case a value outside that range is entered it may cause unexpected behavior.
In case you would like additional information on the features of RadNumericTextBox you would find the following article interesting.
