Input Masks

[SDAHLE]

I give up. I am new to Tec-Tips and Access and tried to find the answer prior to asking this question. In Form Design I have an Input Mask >"OR16-"A000\-000;0;

When entering the data in Form View, how do I get the literal "OR16-" to automatically show for each new screen and the cursor to automatically be at the first input position after the "OR16-"?

Thanks.

Hi SDAHLE,

I think your Input Mask should be:
>"OR16-"A000\-000;0

In the On Enter event of your Control:
Me!TheControlName.SelStart = 5
