Masked Edit Box Question

[kertsman]

Okay,

I think I have my problem narrowed down to the Mask for the edit box. When I remove the mask the box will bind to the database when I have the mask coded in, it won't. I tried adding the mask later but then the data from the DB won't load. I am accessing an Oracle 8 DB with a ADO Data Object & trying to use a phone number mask eg. (###) ###-####.

Anyone have any ideas??

Thanks,
Kevin

If you have MaskEdit control bounded then instead of Mask property use DataFormat property. It will let you specify any format (mask) you want.

Hmmm...Yes that works for when I pull the data from the Database but what about when the user inputs the data. I want them to enter the phone number in the same format. I see that after you tab, it auto formats the info. But I don't trust the users here enough to enter the exact amount of number.
