A user can enter any kind of data into a text field. These values are always stored as a string in the Text property. This can cause some problems when you are evaluating the user input. These controls offer specific solutions to this issue:

  • Formatted field.
  • Date field.
  • Time field.
  • Currency field.
  • Numeric field.
  • Pattern field.
