SftMask/OCX 7.0 - ActiveX Masked Edit Control

ValidMsg Property, SftMaskContents Object

Determines whether the contents are valid (with error message handling).

Syntax

Get

object

A SftMaskContents object.

Boolean

Determines whether the contents are valid (with error message handling).

Comments

The ValidMsg property determines whether the contents are valid (with error message handling).

The error message defined by the MessageEmpty or MessageInvalid properties is displayed if the contents are empty or invalid.

The AllowEmpty property defines whether the contents are optional (valid even if empty).

If the control contents don't match the defined mask (see Mask property), the ValidationError event occurs.

If the control contents are valid and match the defined mask (see Mask property), the CustomValidation event is invoked.

The Contents.ValidMsg property can also be used to determine whether the contents are valid without the display of an error message.
