Although, personally, I hate the control, you can use a Microsoft Masked
Edit Control (Project/Components from VB's menu) for the phone numbers
and SS#, but I'd use a DatePicker control (Project/Components from VB's
menu and select "Microsoft Windows Common Controls-2" from the list; the
DatePicker, called DTPicker, is in that collection of controls) for the
date entry. This control presents a full month view for your user to
select from... no chance of any confusion that way and you can format
the value selected by the user anyway you want to.

need to make sure that dates, phone numbers, and ss# are inputed right
into the database.
