    This is happening because you set a "Limit Entry" of 0-5. The minimum value of 0 and a maximum value of 5. Please take note that these are values and not characters. It means that "1234" is equal to one thousand two hundred thirty-four (1,234).

    The solution is to turn off the "Limit Entry" or change the maximum value to 99999.

    Hope that helps. Thank you.

    Thanks a lot!! So if I need this form to allow just 5 character entries, is
    there any setting somewhere? Shall I write 5 in the "Width" box?

    I'm afraid you can't limit that using the number field.

    The width option refers to the width of the textbox, not the limit of the entered value.

    If you want a field to have at least 5 characters, use textbox tool and enable input mask.
