Masked TextBox Adding Extra Character
Oct 31, 2010
I'm working on a project that employs a masked text box with a mask ####. When I run the code it pulls the value from the textbox then clears it. When I try to type in it again the first character is added before the mask. (ex. 1#### instead of ####) I've figured out that pressing backspace before trying to enter numbers again resolves this issue. Is there a way to send the backspace function rather than the chrs(8) like SendKeys.Send(Keys.Back) does?

I am using a masked text box to format phone numbers. However, I do not want the extra formatting that gets insterted from the masked text box: (800)-555-1212
All I want is: 8005551212
But I still want the user to type it in like this (to make it easier for user):
(800)-555-1212
I am thinking I can run a replace function on it, but I am not sure what event to use. I found a number of tutorials, but not that useful for what I am doing. [URL]

Assuming that I am going to add new record. I use this function to generate the ID for the new record.
Public Function GetMax(ByVal strTable As String, ByVal strField As String) As Integer
Dim cmd1 As New SqlCommand
Dim conn As New SqlConnection(gStrConnection)
Dim no As Integer
Dim str1 As String
[Code] .....
It returns 1. How can I modify this to make it 20120001 wherein the first 4 number (2012) will depends on the year today.

I have many textboxes that I need to have display percentages. I have used a masked textbox extender and the percentages display fine. using 99.99% as a mask and number as the mask type.Now my problem is that i want it to be converted to a decimal when i save it to the database e.g 50% saves as 0.5 and then when it comes back from the database it must display as 50% again. This is needed for numerous calculations. IS there a way to do this?

I know the title spounds stupid. I will try to explain what I meen. I am trying to make a product key mask. for example: I was able to do this with the MaskTextBox but I want to seperate each line to there own text box For example: [Textbox1] - [Textbox2] - [Textbox3] - [Textbox4] - [Textbox5] I already limited the Textboxs to 5 characters. The problem I am having is, after I enter 5 characters in the first textbox, I cant get the cursor to auto tab to the next textbox. I have already tried fixing it with this code

the first is validating numeric input in a textbox to make sure it's got two decimal places. I think this should be really simple, but I'm totally missing it.The second is adding an extra summary line to a listview. I have it working with all the data required, but I need to add an extra line at the end showing some totals. How do I do this?

OK, so i was going to verify a MaskedTextBox on whether the number input was or was not 10 digits in length. If not 10 digits, obviously they didn't put in a full phone number.
The problem is, even though you have no digits the length is still 10 so you can't check if the user put in 10 digits or not and return an error? Anyone got any ideas on testing for a phone number?I've seen tons of examples on date verification, but none on phone number verification.

Lets say that I had three TextBox's and they are named TextBox1, TextBox2, and TextBox3, is there a way to do like TextBox And Rand(1,3).Text = Nothing? Something similar to this where you click a button and it will choose at randomly a textbox to clear?I know I could do like Dim Number = Rand(1,3)if Number = 1 Then TextBox1.Text = Nothingend ifif Number = 2 Then TextBox1.Text = Nothingend ifor use else if and such, but I have 12 different textbox's, not three, so, I want to shorten the code, if you could do something like TextBox And Rand(1,12).Text = Nothing that would defenitely be way shorter, can you do anything like that to put together "TextBox" and the number to reference the control? I am not looking to use the full controls list to search for the right control nor to make an array that contains the controls, I just want to reference them without adding extra arrays or searhing for them.

i have several masked textbox connected to mysql database through a website i made, and what i'm trying to do is have these masked textbox automatically change the format what the user inputs to "hh:mm tt" so if the user inputs 6 or 600 or 6p it will automatically change it to the format to 6:00 PM.I know that i will have to use the Validated event and I've tried the Format(maskedtextbox1,"hh:mm tt") but can't seem to work. I would rather not use datetimepicker because i dont want the user have the option of using the dropdown.

I am new to visual basic. I am putting a masked text box that is data binded. Example social security number 000-00-0000. When the cursor is on the masked field, a can no longer exit the field. I tried a couple of things on the forums but it has not worked yet. It could be a very simple but I am failing to see it.

I have an assignment in which i have to do a masked textbox for the canadian postal code. So under the mask settings i set it to L0L 0L0. My teacher wants me to make it in such a way that if the user clicks on the postal code textbox and doesn't enter any values in and click in another text box, the box should be highlighted in yellow. I am able to do it for regular textboxes using
If txtcity.Text = "" Then txtcity.BackColor = Color.Yellow Else txtcity.BackColor = Color.White But when i try to the same thing for a masked textbox the colour does not change. This is what i have entered for the masked textbox
Private Sub mtxtpostalcode_MaskInputRejected(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MaskInputRejectedEventArgs) Handles mtxtpostalcode.MaskInputRejected
If mtxtpostalcode.MaskFull = "" Then
mtxtpostalcode.BackColor = Color.Yellow
Else
mtxtpostalcode.BackColor = Color.White

I have a dataSet that I am using to populate a masked text box field. The mask is set to ShortDate ("00/00/0000") but when the number is inserted into the text box it is not formatted correctly and is inserted and the date 2004-04-07 looks like 47/20/04 1 in the masked text box.
what I can do in order for it to read correctly?

Problem: I wanted data input text boxes that only accept numerical values between 0 and 999. I could check for this during a later 'save' routine, but instead preferred to warn the user at the input stage; so I chose masked textboxes - setting the mask to "000". However these boxes appear and behave differently. They have a row of 3 underscores - which I don't want - and also seem more difficult to hit with the cursor. How can I get Masked TextBoxes to appear and behave exactly as normal ones?

The user can only input today's date and tomorrow's date. How can I get it? Example valid dates are: Today's date: March 01, 2011 and tomorrow's date: March 02, 2011 if the dates are not valid then error.
Dim DD As String : Dim MM As String : Dim YYYY As String
Dim DDMMYYY As String
DD = Now.Day : MM = Now.Month : YYYY = Now.Year
If DD.Length = 1 Then DD = 0 & DD
If MM.Length = 1 Then MM = 0 & MM
DDMMYYY = MM & "/" & DD & "/" & YYYY
MskTxtBoxDate.Text = DDMMYYY
