Input mask

[tmarsh]

I have an input mask on a field in a form

>\B>\C>"C "0000;;_""

which gives me BCC and alows a 4-digit entry, that is, BCC appears on entry and I manually enter the numbers. I am trying to change the BCC bit to allow me to have BC with an option to have the last C as an A. Tricky to explain this!!

So I want either BCC or BCA

I have just tried the following:

>\BCC0000;>\BCA0000

It will allow you to use either BCC or BCA

Thanks, that works a treat. i should have said though that I have a space between the letters and numbers. Is that do-able?

Change it to this

>\BCC\ 0000;>BCA 0000

Change it to this

>\BCC\ 0000;>BCA 0000

Works OK except when I enter the field B is displayed but I need it to be BC and then enter either A or B.

It will only show you the first character you have to type the remainder.

So you would need to adjust the letters BCA or BCB

Good enough. Thanks.
