How can create an input in the graphics editor that will only accept alphanumeric characters?
I would like to know if it is possible to create an input field in grpahics editor PG2 that will only accept alphanumeric characters. No spaces or special characters.
I need to prevent the operator from entering in a space or a dash(-). I am currently using 800xA SV5.1 using PG2 graphics. I would appreciate any suggestions.

I don't think so unless you use a Property Reference to write the input to an OPC property residing in a PLC/controller capable of screening the data. E.g. the operator enters an incorrect string which is subsequently written to the PLC which in turn performs the validation, rejection, correction, etc.
A few weeks back a person asked for a "hexadecimal only" entry field which, likewise could not be achieved in PG2 alone.
I suggest that you file an enhancement request with your regional ABB sales representative.
