Hi,

My C# library is not compiling anymore with express C# beta 2 because I
was using MaskedTextBox.InputText.
The new msdn documentation still references this property from the
overview page of this control but does not contain the actual page for
the property anymore.
Is it a bug or has it been replaced by another way to proceed ?
If I discover aything I will post it here.

Thanks for your help

..NET 1.0/1.1 do not include a masked edit box. What controls did you use?
 
I was not using 1.0 or 1.1.
I was using 2.0 in the express edition beta 1.
Now we are in beta 2.

It's a characteristic of a beta/preview version that things change.
 
Thank you Herfried, but I'm not complaining at all that things change.
I know what a beta is and I produce some myself.
My concern is that it was a very important feature and now I'm looking
the way to workaround its sudden lack.

If I have a string for a phone number as 5551234567, the MaskedTextBox
is cool because it can render it as (555)123-4567 but if the user edis
it I want to get back the string as 9994561234 (for storage in a file
or a DB for example) and not (999)456-1234.

Thank you

Nicolas
