Hello,

I am interested in the scenario where a numeric textbox could be configured to allow special characters, in my case the "-" and "+" characters, but not necessarily in the beginning of the number.

For example

99-00+
37-34-

Would be acceptable values.

The value would therefore be a string, not a number

It seems to be infeasible but I am just trying to double check?

Hello Darren,

The described scenario is not supported at this point and as a workaround you could use MaskedTextBox. However keep in mind that the mask works with specific length and it cannot be changed based on the input. In other words the input can't be longer than the mask.
