Hi-
I have a form w/ a phone number field. In the table the number is formated as
########## I would like it to look like (###)###-#### on the form. Any
thoughts?
 
The way you want it to look is fine; however, I would recommend changing the
# to 0. # is option entry 0 is required entry.

Thanks for the reply..The thing is I am not sure how to get it to look like
that. I don't have any code for it..it was using the # as an example of how
the numbers are set up and how I want them to be..Make sense?
Thanks again!
 
Interesting you should use the #, happens to be the code for an optional
digit. Just put "(000) 000-0000" in the format property of the text box.
You can also put the same thing in the Input Mask property so the user will
always have to enter the correct number of digits in the correct format.
