[AccessD] Input Masks

What I was worried about was that an input mask of 000000000 would not work
if used in a text field...but it does...I tested it on a copy of my data.

Thanks,

Mark

Not sure what you mean by effect -- an input mask simply directs the user to
enter the data in a specific way. It won't change the actual data itself. If
you're needing visual clues to help the user through the data entry process,
input mask is a good way to go.

Group,

I have several text fields that contain numerical data stored as text.  Will
a numerical input mask have any effect?
