KeyAscii

The character entered which is invalid. This value is 0 if no character has been entered or no character is associated with the current failure reason.

InvalidPos

The input position where invalid input was detected. This value may be -1 if no input position is associated with the current failure reason.

Comments

The ValidationError event occurs when invalid input is detected, based on the Mask property.

The ValidationError occurs whenever an action results in invalid input.

Once valid input is detected, the CustomValidation event occurs.
