    Masking a search box

    Hello fellow programmers,

    I have created a simple database and added a search field using the quarry builder.

    I am trying to make it masked for a phone number search. IE: (000) 000-0000

    I know how to do this with fields I pull from my dataset but i don't see a mask options in the properties window when i click the search field I created.

    Thank you, any help would be appreciated.

    Just go to Tools -> Components and you will get Microsoft Masked Edit Control 6.0(MSMASK32.OCX) .Normally This ocx is available ON System32 Folder of Windows . after placing this control to the form .just press f4 . and you will get mask property of it .hope it might be helpful .

    Thanks for the help.

    Unfortunately when I go to tools there is no option for components.
