I have a txtPhone that I need to format like 555-555-5555 and when a user
inputs numbers it should only take numbers.
 
Hi

You mean the text box should display the characters like that? If yes, You
can use the ToString method by giving txtPhone.Text =
MyPhoneNumber.ToString("###-###-####"). While saving replace the "-"
character with null.

..NET 2.0 will include a masked edit control.
 
How do I do that?
