How do I code new various datatypes? 1

[ixian]

Hey all,
I have a combo box listed with not mainstream datatypes.
I do have the parameters of each of the types of data...how do I code them ? I need more power then Access but dont want to deal with SQL server( cash and more stuff to do then)

String = is 1 to 50 alphanumberical characters(no special characters..ie &*{}[]_)
Text = up to 2500 alphanuberical characters with all the special characters
etc

This would be best accomplished using a MaskEdit control. With this control you can specify what is valid input and what is not. Then you would simply save the information into a text (if you have non-numerical characters) or number field in your database.
Take Care,
Mike
