Set a maximum value in € for a numeric field

[Gerben_van_Erke]

I'm new to LiveCycle Designer. I'm creating a form which contains some numeric fields that are set to € values. I've managed to set the patterns too max 2 decimals.

Now I want to set a max value in € for those fields. For example. One field can only have a max amount of €2,84. I want the field to allow anything lower than that, but disallow everything above the €2.84. I've looked through the program, but can't find anything at all that looks similar to what I want...I'm guessing that I'm searching on the wrong keywords (see subject). Any help would be appreciated.

In the meantime I forgot to mention I tried to use (still trying really) the Action Builder where I tried to set the following:

Condition

When numeric field FieldName is greater than 2,84

Result

Show a message box with the following message: Test

Set the title: Test and the icon: ...

But this doesn't work at all. It doesn't matter if I fill out 2.84 or 1.66 or 3.12. It just pops the message box.

Seems totally unlogical and kinda works frustrating....

what am I doing wrong?

You can use scripting to check the value.

This JavaScript in the exit:Event will do this, then it will warn the user if the value is above 2.84 and correct the value back to 2.84.

Sigh. that "easy"...thanks for the quick help! This seems to work better and faster than the tool builder.
