I have text boxes that will take dollars and cents information. Does anybody know of a way to preformat a text box(be it with the MaskedEdit control , or by some other means)so it will automatically take the last two numbers entered by the user and put them to the right of the decimal point?The entry being from right to left essentially with the decimal point being fixed. Any examples or direction given would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Currently there is no direct way to do this. The closest you can get is this:

Code: HTML/ASPX 
<eo:MaskedEdit runat="server" ID="me2">
    <eo:MaskedEditSegment Mask="-9999.99" SegmentType="Mask" />
</eo:MaskedEdit>


This will allow you to do almost what you wanted to do with one problem: If you type "123", the number "23" will become the decimal (as expected), however if you type "123", then the number "1" will take the "."'s place and you will see ".23" on the screen. If you continue to type, it will work as expected. We will see if we can fix this problem in our next build.

Thanks!
