'Masking Text Input Q. I would like to create masks for date and time input. I have heard of the MaskedEdit control but don`t know how to use it. A. Keyword: MaskedBox control, Mask property. Example: To input a date in a MaskedEditBox, set its mask to "##/##/####". When you run the app, the box will show "__/__/____" and you will be able to type numbers in its prompt area.
