You're better off doing it yourself anyhow. Handle WM_KEYDOWN in the edit control, and then you can do your own validation. You can set the number style, or if you need negative numbers or decimals, you can deal with that in the same message.

In the resource editor with the dialog box displayed, right click the edit control, select properties, select the styles tab, then check the Number checkbox. This will allow only the digits 0-9.
