Hi all,

I'm looking for code that will implement "picture" or "format" strings
in an edit control (subclassed or not, it doesn't matter). I'd like to
be able to create one of these controls and give it something like
                      (###) ###-####
as a picture which will do checking on character input (in this case, allow
only digits).

I saw an article in MSJ about it and was wondering if anyone had implemented
something like that for Windows.

thanks,
marco
