Telephone Field for Toll-Free numbers only 1

[mjones219]

I need to restrict input in to a telephone field. I want to allow only the entry of an "8" as the first number in the input mask "(000) 000-0000". How do I make the first number only allow an "8"?

Using the following in the InputMask property of a sample table allowed me to have the "8" as the first character...and you don't even have to type the "8"....You just start with the 00 or 66 or whatever.

!"(8"00&quot "000\-0000;0;_ It's not important that someone else can do in one step what it took you ten to do...the important thing is that you found a solution.
