Hi guys, me again.

Does somebody know how to mask input data in a TextBox? I'd like only dates
to be inserted so that I can use it afterwords as a filter for bringing data
from Access Database.

Thanks
Bregards

As far as I know you can't use/create input masks in Excel

Can't you just check a date has been entered in the textbox Exit
event?

Code:
--------------------

Private Sub Textbox1_Exit(Cancel As Boolean)
If Not IsDate(Textbox1.Value) Then
Msgbox "Please enter a date."
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
