Remarks

Text is the default binding property for the MaskedTextBox class.

Strings retrieved using this property are formatted according to the control's formatting properties, such as Mask and TextMaskFormat.

You can assign a string with or without literal characters to Text depending on the values of ResetOnPrompt, ResetOnSpace, and SkipLiterals.

Text is the default binding property for MaskedTextBox.

MaskedTextBox will raise the TextChanged event whenever the formatted text value changes. Different properties may or may not cause this value to change. For example, changing the PasswordChar property will not raise the TextChanged event, but changing the Mask property will.
