RadNumericTextBox issue when entering more than 15 digits number

[Manoj]

I need to display the large number in exponential notation format.

When I enter more than 15 digit number which is "12345678901234567890" into the RadNumericTextBox

Value automatically gets rounded as 12345678901234560000.(Zero at the end) which is wrong.

But,
When I enter more than 21 digits number "1234567890123456789012"
then the value gets displayed as "1.234567890123457e+21" which is working perfectly

So the problem is in between the range 16 - 21 Digits. 

Please help to resolve this problem.

My Code

<telerik:RadNumericTextBox Width="100px" ID="txtTest" EmptyMessage="Test" ShowSpinButtons="false" DisplayText="" Type="Number"
                                runat="server" InvalidStyleDuration="100">
                                <NumberFormat AllowRounding="false" GroupSeparator="" DecimalDigits="15"   KeepNotRoundedValue="true" />
                                <ClientEvents OnKeyPress="keyPress" OnValueChanged="valueChanged"  />
</telerik:RadNumericTextBox>

Telerik.Web.UI.RadNumericTextBox.prototype._compileRegEx = function () {
                        var regexDecimalSeparator = this.get_numberFormat().DecimalSeparator == "." ? "\\." : this.get_numberFormat().DecimalSeparator;
                        this._acceptRegExp = new RegExp("[e0-9" + regexDecimalSeparator + this.get_numberFormat().NegativeSign + "]{1}");
                        this._rejectRegExp = new RegExp("[^e0-9" + regexDecimalSeparator + this.get_numberFormat().NegativeSign + "]{1}", "g");
                        this._decimalReplaceRegExp = new RegExp(regexDecimalSeparator, "g");
                    };

                    var orgNegativeSign = "";
                    function keyPress(sender, args) {
                        if (args.get_keyCode() == 45) {
                            orgNegativeSign = sender.get_numberFormat().NegativeSign;
                            sender.get_numberFormat().NegativeSign = "~";
                        }
                    }


                    function valueChanged(sender, args) {
                        if (orgNegativeSign != "") {
                            sender.get_numberFormat().NegativeSign = orgNegativeSign;
                            orgNegativeSign = "";
                        }
                    }

Hi Manoj,

The RadNumericTextBox control supports numbers that are between -2^46 and 2^46. If you enter a number that is outside that range abnormalities in the behavior of the control could be observed.

This said, would you elaborate more on the scenario that you would like to implement? Are you performing calculations with a 21 digit number or it is only stored and used somewhere as is?

In case you do not need to perform calculations with the number and its length is fixed to 21 digits you could use a RadMaskedTextBox for the number.

Anyone know how to make 4.63e-10 work? this sample code allows for 4.63e10 but not a negative exponent.

Also, is allowing uppercase E as well possible?

Hello David,

Please note that the RadNumericTextBox does not allow the numbers to be displayed in scientific notation by default. This is because the input supports only numeric characters.

With that said, if you would like to show the numbers in scientific format I would recommend using RadTextBox or RadMaskedTextBox controls.
