You would use the .Mask property and specify 0% for percentages<br />

<div>
I think in my first post I made a typo<br />
<br />
this line<br />
<br />
LblPctTotal = Format(lblPctTotal, ?Percent?) <br />
<br />
should read<br />
<br />
LblPctTotal = Format(lblPctTotal, &quot;Percent&quot;) <br />
<br />
<br />

Creating a mask for a percentage

I am trying to create a mask in order to show a percentage.  I&#39;ve tried &quot;99.99%&quot; and variations, but nothing works.  

I have a textbox that is displaying a float from a database.  I don&#39;t want it to show 25.1, but 25.1%.  I know I can go in and adjust the textbox.text, but I&#39;d rather just have a mask.  I will having a lot more of these down the road.  

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
