Thanks for reply,

I've seen this KB article and found it not very useful.

>>Hi all,

>>What I need to do is to set an input mask to elemindate data entry error. The standard textbox doesn't have the input mask option to set, so I have to use the Masked Edit control to do what I want. But I'm having problem using this control. When I edit a record and change the value bound to the Maskedbox, then update. It seems to update because I can see the change right away after the save. But when I exit out of the form and come back, the old value shows, like it's never been changed. Other changed values of standard textbox show as expected.
