if thisform.pagefram1.page1.text1.value>2 OR  thisform.pagefram1.page1.text1.value < 0

indicates that 0 is a legal value. Your messagebox says from 1 to 2.

Was the value 0 when you tested this????

The arguements to the BETWEEN function set the upper and lower limits. A value that matches one of them results in the statement evaluating to TRUE. Make sure that the arguements represent the actual range of acceptable results.

For testing purposes, you might also consider putting something like

=messagebox("Congratulations, you've entered a correct value")

in the ELSE block.
