>hi everyone;
>got a problem and as my partner say "this is bubble gum stuff". Me being a rookie at this do not know a whole lot about "bubble gum stuff". Currently I have a input msak of 99,999,999.99 on a textbox. when i input data i have to input all 10 digits. How can i set this up so user can input dollar amount, with two decimal places, then move automatically to the next control. I have about ten text boxes that need to be set up this way. Again as i said i am new at this and sometimes i am a slow learner.

Jim,

Take a look under the files section here. (Click on the File cabinet in the upper left frame. Under the classes cabinet is a textbox class submitted by Jim Booth (read guru). Here is the description of it.

This is a textbox class that allows the entry of numbers in the calculator fashion, that is comming in from the right. The decimal point is automatically placed in the number based on the Inputmask.


I think that will do everything you need.
