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?

How to enter the date in the masked text box and how to validate it
View 2 RepliesOK, 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.

View 4 RepliesEssentially I am trying to replicate the Windows 7 (In-Windows) activation key TextBox form. The Form where it will auto capitalize letters, remove or deny all non alphanumeric characters except dashes every 5 characters that will be auto-input.I assume this can be done with a fairly complicated replacement Regular Expression but I cannot seem to create one to fit the needs.
This is an Example of what I have right now, but it creates an infinite loop as it removes all characters including dashes, than adds a dash, which changes the text and removes the dash again.

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.

View 8 RepliesI'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?
