Input/Display Masks C#

[Guest]

Using Framework 2.0, is there a method for Masks to be used in C# web
application? I found documentation on MaskedProviders but I can’t find any
detailed examples of how it’s implemented. On top of that I think it’s just
for client based win forms and not ASP.

Basically, the user needs to be able to free type a date , phone, or
whatever the case may be 1102006 and either on lost focus in the control I
want to redisplay with mask or before saving to the database I want to mask
it as 11/10/2006.

I would hope that a mask property of some sort would help me here so I
wouldn’t have to write a bunch of tedious string manipulation code.

Any ideas?

We use Infragistics' NetAdvantage suite. The controls are fairly
inexpensive and work well together. They have a number of masked
controls that you can use. You can also download full evals from their
website.
