I set up a control on a form wherein users
enter telephone numbers. In the properties
table for that control, I specified that the input
mask be configured such that the numbers
would enter into a field like: (___) ___-____.
Thus the user would only have to enter the
10 digits that comprise the telephone number.
As I looked at the corresponding HELP text,
I thought I understood that the entered number
would appear formatted within the table field
defined by the datasource for the control. Such
does not seem to be the case, as what gets
stored in the table is the un-formatted 10 digits.
How do I get the telephone number stored as
formatted, i.e., including the formatting literals.
Thanks,
Bill
