  Hello,
  I have a data entry field and am using the RadMaskedTextBox control.  My current maks is Mask="999-999".  This works nicely however, there are scenarios where a valid entry could be "1-5", so it is not restricted to 3 characters on each side.  What my user requires is that when they focus on the field, press the button "1" then press the "-" key, it automatically advances the cursor to the right side of the mask.(on the right of the dash) 
  
  Here is my line of code thus far:
  

  <

   

   

  telerik:RadMaskedTextBox Mask="999-999" EmptyContent="###-###" Value="{Binding Path=SpecificClaimNumber, Mode=TwoWay}" Visibility="{Binding Path=IsSpecificClaimChecked, Converter={StaticResource booleanVisibilityConverter}}"/>
  
  I can find no information on how this would be possible.  Any tips are very welcomed!

  Hi Shawn,
  
  You cannot achieve this with RadMaskedTextBox. You would better use a regular ASP:textBox/RadTextBox with RequiredFieldValidator. Another option is to use RadInputManager with RegExpTextBoxSetting and ASP:TextBox.

  Consider using RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX (built on top of the ASP.NET AJAX framework) as a replacement for the Telerik ASP.NET Classic controls, See the product support lifecycle here.
