Return Value
cInputMask
Specifies a character expression that must evaluate to a character string with the following format:[@cFunction] [cMask]The character expression is reevaluated at run time each time the Grid control is refreshed.

Remarks
Applies To: Column Object
The DynamicInputMask property takes precedence over the Format and InputMask properties.
If the control specified by the column's CurrentControl property is a text box, spinner, or combo box, the cFunction and cMask portions of the DynamicInputMask expression are passed to the Format and InputMask properties for the text box, spinner, or combo box.
Note
The Grid AutoFit method might not resize adequately to display the entire contents of a column if you use this property.
Example
The following example demonstrates a typical format for cInputMask:
Column1.DynamicInputMask = "@R$ ###,###,###.##"
