I did not realize that the input should be numbers only. In that case, Drax is correct you will need a script. Here is one way it could be done.

Javascript! Get the input, check its length, block if length exceed 4.

Answer 9

isNaN() is a function that determines whether a value is an illegal number (Not-a-Number).
If the user enters, for example, "3ii34" when passed to the function isNaN() it will return a boolean true letting the user know that an illegal number was entered.
