MaskedTextBox Copy Paste

[Khizar Khan]

Hi,

I think there is a possible bug in MasktedTextBox when you copy paste. here is the scenario to recreate this.

have a MaskedTextBox with masktext as 00-00-00 (Sort Code) with Type as Standard.

run the application and you will see the text is now defaulted to 00-00-00.

1. Open notepad and type 222222 (6 chars) and select the text and right click and copy.
2. block/Select all the maskedtext in the app,
3. right click and select paste option.
4. you will see the text pasted in the masked textbox and
5. Tabout using a tab key and the copied text disappears.. and defaults to 00-00-00. where as the values should have been 22-22-22.

Note: this doesn't occur when you do ctrl+v and if you do ctrl+v first time then right click option works fine here after.

please advice.

Regards,
Khizar

Hi,
My problem is not with Ctrl + C  and  Ctrl + V. this works perfectly fine.
it is the problem when you do it with the windows context menu (right click on the maskedtextbox)  and select paste for the first time and tab out without CtrlV

Hope this helps.

Hello,

Apologies, please can you try this..

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    AddHandler Me.RadMaskedEditBox1.MaskedEditBoxElement.TextBoxItem.TextChanged, AddressOf MaskedEdit_TextChanged
End Sub
Private Sub MaskedEdit_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
    If Not Me.RadMaskedEditBox1.Text.Contains("-") Then
        Me.RadMaskedEditBox1.Value = Clipboard.GetText()
    End If
End Sub

Let me know if that helps

}
