Default Is there a way to have fixed format in a userform?

Excel's textboxes don't support this kind of thing.

You can parse/validate the entry after you get it or maybe you could use a
calendar control to get the date.

Ideally, I could have it show: "--/--/--"
And the number would fill in each black character.

Thanks
