    Is there a way to restrict a field to only accept whole numbers (no decimals)?  I have the field validation set to numeric, but that doesn't prevent decimals from being entered.

    Thanks,

    Marilyn

    I do not believe it is possible to prevent decimals from being entered into number fields.  It is possible to use a calculation field to round values that are entered to whole numbers.  Here is a guide on how to do so:
