Simple integer regular expression

Question

I have ValidationRegularExpression=\"[0-9]\" which only allows a single character. How do I make it allow between (and including) 1 and 7 digits? I tried [0-9

Answer 1

You got the syntax almost correct: [0-9]{1,7}.

You can make your solution a bit more elegant (and culture-sensitive) by replacing [0-9] with the generic character group "decimal digit": \d (remember that other languages might use different characters for digits than 0-9).

And here's the documentation for future reference:
