Comments

The Valid property determines whether the contents are valid.

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 and automatically displays an error message.
