Returns the pure control contents, without literal characters.
The TextPureNoLiterals property returns the pure control contents, without literal characters.
When retrieving the property TextPureNoLiterals in a Masked Edit control (with Mask), input positions without data are represented by the carriage return (Chr(13)) character. This allows the distinction between unspecified data and specified (but blank) data fields. A simple edit control (without Mask) does not have unspecified positions and never uses the carriage return place holder.
Literal characters are never returned.
It is possible to retrieve portions of the control contents using the Contents.Value property.
The properties Text, TextDisplay, TextDisplayWithLiterals, TextDisplayNoLiterals and TextPureWithLiterals also retrieve the control contents with varying handling of unspecified input positions and literal characters.
Property | Unspecified Positions | Literals |
---|---|---|
Text | Chr(13) | ClipMode |
TextDisplay | Space | ClipMode |
TextDisplayNoLiterals | Space | No |
TextDisplayWithLiterals | Space | Yes |
TextPureNoLiterals | Chr(13) | No |
TextPureWithLiterals | Chr(13) | Yes |
