Hello
i have an input mask for a phone number.
suddenly only the first number types, and the other numbers dont get typed.
for example, i type in 604-888-8888
only the 6 types, and it is highlighted, and any other number i type is
typed over the 6.
then i get an error message.
how do i fix this?
thanks for the help
 
Ditch the input mask completely. If you ever have a phone number not from
North America, your input mask won't allow you to enter it into the table.
Same goes with zipcodes. Actually even more so as a Canadian postal code will
not fit a USA zip code input mask.
 
I would tend to agree with Jerry in my limited experience. Also, make sure
you don't have input masks on both the table and the textbox. I think I've
noticed conflicts before. Only put it in the text box if you're going to
keep it. Then you could probably change the input mask with a checkbox and VB
if you need to modify it for foreign numbers.
