🚀 go-pugleaf

a co-worker has been having inordinate (IMHO) problems trying to use
masked edit fields.  irregardless of the mask used, the results are
the same. from what i gather from the documentation you should use the
.Text property to manipulate or reference information in the field.
using .Text to test the information in the field is not a problem, but
trying to input into it invariably results in a "invalid property" or
"variable not valid" type error.  so, further perusing the
documentation turned up a .SelText property.  input with this was
possible, but only if it was a direct string in quotes (eg "0") type
assignment.  any assignment with, say, a string _varible_ was
completely ineffective.  

i advised that since the project is under time pressure, personally i
would just use regular text fields and verify the input after the user
was done, and this has happened, but has anyone else experienced such
problems with masked edit fields?
