Implementing input format __/__ with realtime functionality

Post by ckirnbauer »

Hello,

is it possible to define a format like mm/yy (expirationdate) in AwareIM with following featurs??

1) when creating a new object, the field expirationdate looks like following:

__/__

where __ is a placeholder and a hint for the user, that he has to enter data here.

2) when user clicks into the field expirationdate, he only has to enter the
-> digits 12 - and the software automatically places '12' instead of the '__',
-> the software overjumps '/'-character and navigates to the other '__',
-> then the user enters '07' and the software automatically places '07' instead of the '__',

-> so that the field has the value '12/07'.

This is a standard behavior in MS Access and even in Filemaker.

Kind regards
Chris
