Write an inherited class from TextBox and implement masking by yourself.

Oh, wait... Someone might already have done it for you. Hence the MaskEdit
box.

this was possible in MS Access--- but then again; VB 2005 isn't HALF
as powerful as Access

Why don't you want to use a masked edit box? That's what it was
designed for!
