C and A have special meanings in the Mask string (see VBhelp for details) you will need to use \ (backslash) as an escape character to get C and A into a mask string. For example:
\C\AN\C###
as a MaskString will show as CANC and allow 3 digits to be added

My Apologies. Had a rogue bit of code in the Form Load. Never shouted just left the caps lock on. Cheers
You're welcome - and thanks!
