<Browsable(False)>
Public Property Culture As CultureInfo

Property Value

Type	Description
CultureInfo	A CultureInfo object whose settings are used by masks.

Remarks

This property specifies the CultureInfo whose settings are used by masks. For instance, it provides such settings as the character used as a currency symbol, date and time separators, the number of digits to the right of the decimal point, common date and numeric patterns, etc.

By default, the Culture property is set to a NULL reference. In this case, the masks use the culture of the current thread (the System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture property). You can set the Culture property to any other CultureInfo object and the editor will use the specified culture instead of the default one.
