If you're not ready to spend on 3rd party, VB6 does have the MS Masked Edit control (msmask32.ocx). Under Project/Components/Controls, select it, then it will show up on your toolbox.

Not easily. We bought some useful tools from ComponentOne one of which does this. Pretty reasonably priced too. You might try Codehound.com or Vb2theMax or PlanetSourceCode for freebies too.

I should know how to do this, but I don't. I'm building a small VB6 app. On the interface there is a text box that a user will key a date into. I'd like to apply an Access-style Input Mask to the text box so the user doens't have to remember to type slashes. How do I do it? -Christopher- _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com ************************************************************************ *********** "This electronic message is intended to be for the use only of the named recipient, and may contain information from Hudson Health Plan (HHP) that is confidential or privileged.
