Allignment

Is there any way to easily right allign a masked edit box?

Well, the MaxLength of a MaskEdBox Control is 64, so say you were to set the code below to 45, that would leave you with only 19 characters.

But if you still want to use it, here is the code.

Public Function vAutoAlign(strText As String, Optional vAlign As Integer = 0, Optional vMaxLength As Long = 92) As String
    Dim sLen As Long
    sLen = Len(strText)

    If sLen >= Val(vMaxLength) Then
        vAutoAlign = strText
        Exit Function
    End If

    If vAlign <= 0 Then 'center align
        vAutoAlign = String((Val(vMaxLength) - sLen) / 2, " ") & strText
    ElseIf vAlign >= 1 Then 'right align
        vAutoAlign = String(Val(vMaxLength) - sLen, " ") & strText
    End If
End Function


Private Sub Form_Load()
    MaskEdBox1.Text = vAutoAlign(MaskEdBox1.Text, vbAlignRight, 45)
    MaskEdBox1.SelStart = Len(MaskEdBox1.Text)
End Sub
