Remarks
The System.Windows.Forms.MaskedTextBox can treat two categories of characters—spaces and prompt characters—specially. Typically, each input character will be tested against the mask and either accepted or rejected. Assuming that the MaskedTextBox.PromptChar property is set to non-null, then setting the MaskedTextBox.ResetOnPrompt property to true will result in special processing for the prompt character. When the user enters the prompt character into the mask, it causes the current mask character position to be cleared and the current position to be advanced to the next editable character.
MaskedTextBox.ResetOnPrompt takes precedence over the MaskedTextBox.AllowPromptAsInput property, as shown in the following table.
| true |
true |
The prompt character can be entered and it causes the current mask position to be reset. This is the default. |
| true |
false |
The prompt character can be entered and it causes the current mask position to be reset. |
| false |
true |
The prompt character is processed as a standard input character. |
| false |
false |
The prompt character is not valid and raises a MaskedTextBox.MaskInputRejected event. |
