44\twocolitem{{\bf wxFILTER\_NUMERIC}}{Non-numeric characters are filtered out.}
45\twocolitem{{\bf wxFILTER\_INCLUDE\_LIST}}{Use an include list. The validator

60\docparam{valPtr}{A pointer to a wxString variable that contains the value. This variable
61should have a lifetime equal to or longer than the validator lifetime (which is usually
62determined by the lifetime of the window). % If NULL, the validator uses its own internal storage for the value. NOT true
