>My advice is to keep it numeric, and just do this sort of makeup for display purposes. If you're keeping it in a textbox, set the texbox's .format="L", .inputmask="999". You may want to remove the format when it gets focus and restore it when it loses focus, to ease the data input.

Thats exactly what I plan to do Dragan - just handle the displays. Could this also be displayed in a combo box?

Thanks Dragan
