MaskedTextBox.ValidateText Method

Definition

Converts the user input string to an instance of the validating type.

public:
 System::Object ^ ValidateText();
public object ValidateText ();
public object? ValidateText ();
member this.ValidateText : unit -> obj
Public Function ValidateText () As Object

Returns

If successful, an Object of the type specified by the ValidatingType property; otherwise, null to indicate conversion failure.

Exceptions

A critical exception occurred during the parsing of the input string.

Remarks

The ValidateText method attempts to convert the formatted string contained in the Text property to an instance of the type that is specified by the ValidatingType property. Prompt characters are ignored in the formatted string, but literals are handled in accordance with the current value of the TextMaskFormat property.

ValidateText raises the TypeValidationCompleted event after the conversion is attempted, regardless of its success.
