Create your own Input mask by using the Input Mask Wizard built in to Access.
Open your Table or Form in Design view and select the Field or Control you want to add the Input Mask to. In the Property Sheet, locate the Input Mask property and click on it to select it.
To the right of the text area you should now see an ellipse (...). Click on the ellipse to start the Input Mask wizard. Then just follow the prompts.
Note, however, that input masks will only work with text or number fields.
