If the user enters a value thatā€™s not in the range, they will get a warning thatā€™s specific to the range you provided. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/6/6e005b2e4330d5ea765a2dda96d37a4f2fdfb960.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/3/3f3b2e3f300965e2bf3bd455f5fae7a1aa55b39e.png) ---

Thought maybe that could preserve a 5-digit entry that starts with Zero if min/max is set to 5 ā€” no luck. Still shaves the first zero šŸ˜¤ ---

Is it possible to bound the minimum and maximum values from a field in the database? It looks like it is possible from the initial image but on my screen its setup differently. It doesnā€™t give me that option. ![number entry](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/c/c78c2ac78e54666a5de2a753a785dc1f838064c7.jpeg) ---

@ThinhDinh Yes, I see that. Its so strange because I saw it on your image but its not listed as an option on my UI. On my UI all I get are these up and down arrows to increase or decrease the quantity. ---

In addition to RegEx implementation, itā€™d be great to see a ā€œValidation Errorā€ message field. That way we could customize the validation as well the warning for the mismatch. ---

great, I hope they do the same with text input, max and min characters, to avoid people type long or short text ---

We might have a problem with the whole thing starts with one zero or many leading zeros, but if it doesnā€™t, I assume you can force it by letting the min be 10000000000 (1 & 9 zeros), max be 9999999999 (10 nines) ---

Hi, Why do Min and Max values work as warning signals only instead of blocking/rejecting wrong values? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/9/99a7c4c9a9f353b282c917f5c466f2d2f81d80f8.jpeg) If a user writes an invalid value out of range (my case is from 1-10), this must be rejected but after 3-4 sec, the value is still appearing on screen and APP uses it without problem, itā€™s wrong! Is it a bug or it was its working design? @Mark Saludos muchachos! ---

I imagine it makes more sense in a form, where the submit button wonā€™t work until you enter a value in range. But I suppose in a detail view screen, itā€™s only a warning? Since entry components on a view screen write directly to the sheet in real time, are you expecting it to clear out if the value is outside of the range? ---

Hola Jeff, Well, at least I hope it will disable the wrong value and APP keeps **working with last valid value** otherwise, this improvement is going to lose benefits. In every software you have used before, _ **Min and Max values** _ means the same: only allowed values between them!
