I got a question, for example, i have already created several form, but then
i realise i forget to set input mask for some of my attributes in some table,
and i goto the table to set, but my form didnt reflect?

Is there a way to update to reflect the input mask without recreating the
form?

Thank in advance

Copy the Input Mask from the TableDef, and paste it into the Input Mask
property of the Control on the Form. But, consider that the "quirks" of
Input Masks make them a hindrance rather than a help in many cases -- I used
Input Masks to force entry of a four-digit year when doing Y2K remediation,
but that's one of the very few times I ever thought them appropriate.
