Im trying to make a Custom Input Mask
for currency
in Visual Studio 2013
But, this type of mask has a limit: 9999,00.
I can't write numbers like 99999999,00.
I want a mask
that works with any amount of numbers
Is it possible?
This worked for me. Instead of creating a custom mask, create a custom maskedTextbox.
Even with the correct mask, the delivered maskedTextBox is difficult for users to enter data. The currencyTextbox automatically formats/shifts the entered values.
Once you add that class to your project, you'll see the currencyTextBox appear in your toolbox. Then just set a mask for it depending on how large a dollar value you want to store. According to the author, you use all 0s, I personally used "$000,000.00"
//Crie um textbox com o name txt_valor e atribua os eventos KeyPress,KeyUp e
// Leave e uma string valor;
string valor;
private void txt_valor_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e)
{
if (!Char.IsDigit(e.KeyChar) && e.KeyChar != Convert.ToChar(Keys.Back))
{
if (e.KeyChar == ',')
{
e.Handled = (txt_valor.Text.Contains(","));
}
else
e.Handled = true;
}
}
private void txt_valor_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
valor = txt_valor.Text.Replace("R$", "");
txt_valor.Text = string.Format("{0:C}", Convert.ToDouble(valor));
}
private void txt_valor_KeyUp(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
valor = txt_valor.Text.Replace("R$","").Replace(",","").Replace(" ","").Replace("00,","");
if(valor.Length == 0)
{
txt_valor.Text = "0,00"+valor;
}
if(valor.Length == 1)
{
txt_valor.Text = "0,0"+valor;
}
if(valor.Length == 2)
{
txt_valor.Text = "0,"+valor;
}
else if(valor.Length >= 3)
{
if(txt_valor.Text.StartsWith("0,"))
{
txt_valor.Text = valor.Insert(valor.Length - 2,",").Replace("0,","");
}
else if(txt_valor.Text.Contains("00,"))
{
txt_valor.Text = valor.Insert(valor.Length - 2,",").Replace("00,","");
}
else
{
txt_valor.Text = valor.Insert(valor.Length - 2,",");
}
}
valor = txt_valor.Text;
txt_valor.Text = string.Format("{0:C}", Convert.ToDouble(valor));
txt_valor.Select(txt_valor.Text.Length,0);
}
The standard way of applying the mask via Regular Expresions is detailed in Microsoft documentation: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms234064.aspx Pertinent to your case it could be something like:
$\d{9}.00
Hope this may help.
