Ok, there are a few flaws in this. Firstly, your table gets cut off, secondly, there is this magic function called tonumber.

local max = 20 --change this to the biggest number in the table

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	local num = script.Parent.Parent.NumberHere.Text
	if tonumber(num) then --check if it's a num
		if tonumber(num)<=max then --check if it's under the max
			vlll.Text = num
		end
	end
end)
