I think it should be "is in" instead of "is not in". As written, it will 
allow any keys except numbers.

I'd do:

on keydown pKey
  if (pKey is a number or pKey = ".") and len(me) < 3
  then pass keydown
end keydown

You don't have to worry about carriage returns, they aren't trapped by 
keydown. Set the field's autotab to true if you want carriage returns to 
tab out of the field.
