INPUT MASK FOR TEXTBOX IN WINDOWS FORM

Hello.
How can I set input mask for TextBox in Windows Form?
For example I want to mask (format) TextBox for inputing phone number like
(999) 999-99-99.
The TextBox must first show something like this: (___) ___-__-__

Or is there any free component for this?

How can I do this?

Hi MsNews,

I think I would just use 4 textboxes side by side as we often seen done for
that

It makes your program not real globalized by the way.

I hope this helps?

Try the following:

There will be a MaskedEdit control included in .NET for the next version release.
