I need to use a masked edit control in my project. I doscovered that it does not want to display at all.

I decided to test it in a test VC++ project. I created a dialog based project and put the masked edit control on the dialog and tested the dialog. The control displayed. Then I put a group box on the dialog and put another masked edit control in the group box. Then it refused to display.

Can anybody help?

Go to GropBox Properties , Place a Checkmark in "Transparent " Property, Your Masked edit will be displayed.

Note: for any active x Component which, u wish to place inside groupbox make sure that gropbox transperant propterty is set.

I hope this helps.
