In the WPF application, you can handle this by handling TextChanged event:

void arsDigitTextBox_TextChanged(object sender, System.Windows.Controls.TextChangedEventArgs e)
{
    Regex regex = new Regex("[^0-9]+");
    bool handle = regex.IsMatch(this.Text);
    if (handle)
    {
        StringBuilder dd = new StringBuilder();
        int i = -1;
        int cursor = -1;
        foreach (char item in this.Text)
        {
            i++;
            if (char.IsDigit(item))
                dd.Append(item);
            else if(cursor == -1)
                cursor = i;
        }
        this.Text = dd.ToString();

        if (i == -1)
            this.SelectionStart = this.Text.Length;
        else
            this.SelectionStart = cursor;
    }
}
