Woops..... just realised this isn't one of the ASP one's

You can set the mask in your code btw (or the VB IDE properties dialog)

The TextBox doesn't support a mask property (except, if you want to
think of the PasswordChar property as a "mask"). There is a control
named MaskedEditBox, but it is generally considered to be a "weak"
control to use. What type of input mask are you interested in (perhaps
we can devise some code to implement it)?

Hi,

There is no good control in Visual Studio 6, which would provide masked
functionality. MaskedEditBox is not very good. I would suggest to use some
third-party, controls, which have built-in functionality to input only
numeric, date or some other information. FarPoint controls do pretty good
job in this area

Or, possibly, extend and enhance The .NET TextBox class yourself in a class
library?
