I have set up an input mask for a date field text box in my Access 97 based application.
99/99/00;0;_
If I start entering the date ie 25/ and tab out of the text box I get the following warning.
"The value you entered isn't appropriate for the input mask '99/99/00;0;_' specified for this field."
This message is not application user friendly as the extra ';0;_' in the input mask is meaning less to the user only useful to the programmer.
Is there a way of defining my own message ??
such as
"the date entered is incorrect use the format dd/mm/yy."
