Input mask for Military Time

[Arkansas Lady]

I have created an input mask for Military Time. However, when you hit enter,
it is converted to Long Time. For example 23:30:20 appears as 11:30:20 PM.
How can you keep this as 23:30:20. If the format is short time the seconds
are not displayed. If you use Long Time, it appears as 11:30:20 PM
Thanks

Hi Arkansas Lady

You need to set the Format property of the textbox as well as the InputMask
property.

Graham,

When I set the format property to Short Time, I can type in 23:30:20.
However, when I hit enter, the seconds disappear. If I set it to Long Time,
then it goes to 11:30:22 PM. Thanks for your help.

Don't use either. Instead use a Format property of

"hh:nn:ss"

Hi again

Don't use the canned formats - set it explicitly to hh:nn:ss
