I have the following Input Mask I use to enter

LL00LL

How would I after entering the details view it with a space between the 3rd and 4th characters

LL0 0LL

Thank you

David

 
I don't know if this is any good to you, but if you set up your input mask in your table, then build your input form, and put a space inbetween the 3rd and 4th chars in the input mask propery of the form, this should look like it has the gap in the form, but should still store the input in the table as a single 6 digit entry.

I think. Could be wrong. Probably am. :)

Set the format of your control to this:

@@@ @@@

then when the user tabs out it will display the way you want.
