Hi everyone,
I'm a very new newbie - know nothing
Am I right in thinking that the input mask just acts as a guide to data
input and doesn't force the user to input in the same pattern
I've just been looking at a database where the field has an input mask
00\_00#;0;
The field is text but the entry will always be numeric two numbers followed
by an underscore then by three numbers. The problem is that it will accept 2
numbers after the underscore so that numbers that start with 0 eg 32_065 can
be entered as 32_65 and will sort differently
Is there any way to fix this or do it better?
Thank you
