Custom Integer Number field gives unwanted hint. How do I remove "Please enter a value between x and y."

As the title says, I have a custom integer number field which gives an unwanted hint. Its unwanted because I am using it as a challenge field for new members to present an existing member number assigned from the parent organization. I only need to manually validate it later, but I need it to be within a reasonable range at account creation. We recently updated to current CB 2.0.x from the 1.9.x series which didn't display this behavior. How do I disable it to remove "Please enter a value between x and y."

*bump*

Anyone please?

That's the way the integer field works.

You can either use a text field and proper regex validation on it, or just use CB Query add-on (Professional membership needed) to do this against a table/list of valid numbers.

regex? OK, I'll explore that, but will that make the message not appear then? That's my concern here, its gives away our secret passwords!
