Problem is not as originally stated. It is deceiving because -- phone number is stored as 1234567890 When displayed, the format mask does not take effect until focus is in that field, so it appears as 1234567890 instead of 123-456-7890. So unless the user enters that field he will not see it displayed as expected.
Bernie,
Keep in mind that Format Mask used in DB Edits is for "DATA INPUT" and not to display. So, it only takes effect when focus is on that field to input data.
Hope that explains to avoid any confusion.
