using VB to create Input Mask

[Ted]

I'm using VB to create an Input Mask for a text box. That
is working but I want to save all characters. For example
the input mask is adding a dash. I want the dash saved.

This is currently my line of code:
txtPolicyNo.InputMask = "LLL-000000"

how do i code it to save the dash in the table? i have to
use code because the input mask changes depending on the
Claim Number entered.

TIA
Ted

Try

txtPolicyNo.InputMask = "LLL-000000;0"
