TCustomMaskEdit.DisableMask function

Declaration

function DisableMask(const NewText: string): Boolean

Description

DisableMask is a Boolean function used to save the current edit mask to an internal member, and then disables the edit mask in the control. This gives developers the opportunity to set any text in the control without affecting the control state. Whether or not the function succeeds, NewText will be set as the new Text in the control. There is no need to retain the saved internal mask or trim type; they are only set in SetEditMask.

Use RestoreMask to re-enable the saved edit mask for the control.
