Hello all. I'm trying to figure out how to have a number automattically format itself on entry. What I need is ######### to automatically change to ### ### ###. So no matter what I enter, I want the field to reformat itself to the separated number. I've tried Arbitrary Mask, but this forces the use to enter the value using the correct format. Any help would be apprecaited.

Arbitrary mask should work for this.

Enter 999 999 999 in an arbitrary mask, and it will separate numbers as you enter them.

Thank you for your response Nesa. I've turned on arbitray mask and entered  ### ### ### as the formatting, but when I attempt to type in the field afterwards, I receive the error as follows;

 

Warning: JavaScript Window -

The value entered does not match the format of the field = "### ### ###"

 

It does not matter what I type, the error comes up immedately.
