Hi,

I just want to enter the date, so i used the maskedbox control
by coding the property maskedbox.Mask = "##/##/##" and format = "ddddd" but when i wanted to pull up the date from the table which is in access and assign it to the control like maskedbox.text = !date1 this value from the table is not showing up, instead it shows up a blank editing area in the masked box control and the mask is also no more there (since i'm able to type in any number of characters).

i wanted to show the date in this box and allow the user to edit that.
hope you follwed this.

thanks for your help

Thanks
shashi
