Can you make a "separator" in ASP.net Textboxes? (C#)

I was just curious if it's possible to put a "separator" (Not sure what you'd call it) in a textbox in ASP.net. For example, I want a textbox on my form to be a blank textbox with "blank:blank:blank" so they can just type the time, and another to be "blank/blank/blank" for the date, and so on. I've tried googling it for a bit but didn't find what I was looking for, probably because I'm calling it a seperator, and I'm not sure how accurate that is. I was hoping it could be done that way, but if there's another way, I'm using C#. Let me know if I explained that right at all or if you can recommend anything. As before, I appreciate the help from this community!

Use the MaskedEdit control in ASP.NET (from the AJAX Control Toolkit), should do exactly what you want.

Probably should start with checking out if an input mask meets your needs. The AJAX Control Toolkit might be a good place to start when looking at easy to use controls. Check out their MaskedEdit control at: http://www.asp.net/ajaxlibrary/AjaxControlToolkitSampleSite/
