SUMMARY
When you create a custom form using version 1.0 of the Microsoft Electronic Forms Designer, data entered into a Masked Edit control will not automatically be written to the MEF Package when the form is sent. The code to package and unpackage data in a Masked Edit control is not included in the E-Forms toolkit.



MORE INFORMATION
You can add code to the WriteTaggedControls and ReadTaggedControls functions so the Masked Edit control is automatically included in the MEF Package. To do so, perform the following steps:  Open your E-Form project in Visual Basic.</li> In the Project window, select EFORM.BAS.</li> In the Procedures drop-down list box, select WriteTaggedControls.</li> Scroll to the section of the code that is commented "'Add other custom controls here".</li>  Add the following code directly below the comment: ElseIf TypeOf ctrl Is MaskEdBox Then MEFWriteText package, Tag, CStr(ctrl.Text) </li> From the Procedures drop-down list box, select ReadTaggedControls.</li> Scroll to the section of the code that is commented "'Add other custom controls here".</li>  Add the following code directly below the comment: ElseIf TypeOf ctrl Is MaskEdBox Then ctrl.Text = MEFReadText(package, Tag, "") </li></ol>
