pasting into masked text box

[pelusa]

hello,

I am dedveloping this solution in ms visual studio 2005 vb.Net

I have a masked text box using this mask: 99999999

Sometimes users paste the numbers into this control without makin sure if the are in the starting position of the control causing the number to be cut.

Let's say they paste the number 20891231 but they clicked in the middle of the control, they will end up with 1231 in the control.


Is there a way that i can make sure the number gets pasted always at the starting of the control no matter where the user clicks?

Thank you,

[Plater]

On a got focus event, set the cursor position to the begining?
Not sure if that will cause trouble, so try it out and see if it interfers with normal typing and stuff?
