I'm trying to create and populate a RadMaskedTextBox control within a Silverlight Project using the following code as an example. However, Stepping through the code, the value of .MaskedText is nothing when it gets to the point of setting the variable Result. Is it possible to set the RadMaskedTextBox control in code and if so what is the proper way to do it?
Thanks

Dim Result As String = "92881-0706"

Dim PostMask As String = "#####-####'

Dim mtb As New Telerik.Windows.Controls.RadMaskedTextBox

If PostMask IsNot Nothing Then

If PostMask.ToString.Length > 0 Then

With mtb

.MaskType = Telerik.Windows.Controls.MaskType.Standard

.Mask = PostMask

.Value = PostalCode

Result = .MaskedText

End With

End If

Well testing again and stepping through the code .MaskedText is always Nothing.

Here's a simple code snippet which should duplicate the issue in a Silverlight 4 application:

Dim Result As String = ""

Dim PostMask As String = "#####-####'

Dim PostalCode = "02124"
