    Input mask issues

    Hi there,



    I'm creating several input masks for some fields in a form.

    The problem is that when I access the Customize Input Mask Wizard, and fill out the information (see Input Mask.png); then click Close, I get the following message: "Field cannot be empty."

    It wasn't empty when I clicked on the button. Now, I can't change the Sample Data and I can't get out of the Wizard.

    Help!

    Click image for larger version.

    Hi June7,

    I tried to attach it again and the Computer tab is not working. The image is showing right now in my original [I edited it to include the image after my itchy trigger finger did its job]

    It shows now. Never seen X used as mask. I don't think it is valid. http://databases.about.com/od/tutori...oft-Access.htm
