I'm trying to learn Access through an online class. I've filled out a database with employee name, address, etc. fields. The last step I completed was to add a telephone field, data type is text, then the three black dots should appear at the end of the Input Mask box in field properties. Except the dots DON'T appear. I've asked my teacher and she seems to think I'm having trouble adding the telephone field. Can anyone please help me figure out why the three black dots don't show up? I've been told the wizard might not be installed, and so I reinstalled Access with the wizards, but it still didn't work. HELP!!
