I'm not going to spoonfeed you, but if you just bothered to look up the MaskedTestBox class, you'd see there there is a property called "Text" inside. (Duh!)

If you don't know what to do with that, then you should really take a more systematic approach to programming and read some tutorials/manuals first.

It's boring seeing the same question repeated in more than 1 post, it is also bad forum-manners!
If no-one knows the answer, no-one will reply to your post, it's that simple!

I would advise to read the manual or go to the M$-site.

If you are unable to learn how to do this basic thing, then you really deserve to fail your project..

Before deciding to use VB in your project, you should have thought about whether your coding skills were up for the job.

The answer is in the manual... almost any manual or text... sounds like you are in a class... the answer is in the book(s) you are assigned.

Class projects are NOT about specific lines of code, but rather
can you do the research to find the right things to do!
no matter how many classes you take or degrees you get, the on-the-job
requirement is GET THE JOB DONE -- that will mean reading the object class definitions, man pages, and working it out.

get use to it or change your major

FYI: this is a discussion FORUM, not a conversation via cell phone!
Even Visual Basic is more readable than the cryptic stuff you put in your messages.
And doubting Nodsu is one of the dumbest things you can do on TechSpot.
As said before, get a manual or buy a book on VB, helpfiles are not going to give you the answer.

Say your button is button1. So double-click on the button in the form designer thingy so that it takes you to the private sub for the button's click event. Enter this code between the "Private Sub..." and "End Sub" lines:

maskedtextbox1.text="^-"

Cheers
