Adding up a sum of 2 numbers into A Masked Textbox

I am trying to add the sum of two numbers such as 350 + 400 to a Masked Textbox using a button. I am sorry I am pretty new to C#. Any help is appreciated. Thanks 

private void button11_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   maskedTextBox2.Text.Sum = 350 + 400
}

If the .Text property of maskedTextBox2 is a string, it will not have a .Sum property.

Try this:

private void button11_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    maskedTextBox2.Text = (350 + 400).ToString();
}

Like this?

public void button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    maskedTextBox2.Text = (350 + 400).ToString();
}

Unless there is some format of the MaskedTextBox that is preventing the assignment, that should be fine.

You really just want the sum to show up in the textbox, right? So really, you just need to work with the Text property of the box.

private void button11_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   maskedTextBox2.Text = 350 + 400
}

masketTexBox2.Text = (350+400).ToString();

This can help. Appending value to textbox control is done throught .Text property. And at the end, I just converted sum into string

You just need to set the MaskedTextBox.Text property. Note that the result of 350 + 400 will be of type System.Int32; however, MaskedTextBox.Text is a System.String. C# will not perform the type conversion implicitly (you'll get a compile-time error), so you need to convert the result of this addition to a string. Here's an example:

private void button11_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    maskedTextBox2.Text = (350 + 400).ToString();
}

For more information on types, see this MSDN page.
