Use this code to parse the maskEdit control. Once you have the values
in your
variables it will be easy for you to assign them in your database
columns:

        public void parseControl(string AString)
        {
            if (AString.StartsWith("("))
            {
                int iStartChar = AString.IndexOf("(");
                int iEndChar = AString.IndexOf(")");

                string prefix = AString.Substring(iStartChar, iEndChar
+ 1);
                string remnant = AString.Substring(iEndChar+1);    //
skip the ")" mask

                textBox1.Text = prefix;           // or assign it
elsewhere.
                textBox2.Text = remnant;       // same as above.
            }
        }


Usage:

parseControl(maskedTextBox.Text);
