Default Input for TextBox having a mask for date or $ amount

Excel's textbox doesn't support this kind of masking.

You can apply the format when you leave the textbox, though--like with the code
you showed.

But for the date stuff...

You might want to take a look at Ron de Bruin's site for some tips/code/free
calendar control:

I have a form that I would like to make some TextBox's to be formatted
for dates (having a mask for m/d/yy), and then a couple for dollar
amounts $X.XX. Can someone please tell how this is done (any where it
needs to be put if it is a specific placement).

I've tried:

CRF_Form.TextBox1.Value = Format(Date, "m/d/yy")

I've seen other people trying this (it doesn't change the data when
entering in the data though).

Thanks.
