[SOLVED] MaskedTextBox

Hi Glenn,

You can add a handler for the “Validating” event of the Masked Textbox and add a System.Text.RegularExpressions reference in your code.  Here is an example with C# code you can use as a model:

private void maskedTextBox1_Validating(object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e)
{
// Define a regular expression for repeated words.
Regex rx = new Regex(@”([PM+-]\d{1,5}(\.\d{1,2})*)*”,
RegexOptions.Compiled | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);

// Define a test string.
string text = maskedTextBox1.Text;

// Find matches.
MatchCollection matches = rx.Matches(text);

// Report on each match.
foreach (Match match in matches)
{
GroupCollection groups = match.Groups;
AlertBox.Show(match.Value);
}
}

Please let me know if this works for you!

Best regards,

Levie
