<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>
        If set the <a class="xref" href="GrapeCity.Wpf.SpreadSheet.CellType.Editors.GcTextBox.AutoConvert.html#GrapeCity_Wpf_SpreadSheet_CellType_Editors_GcTextBox_AutoConvert">AutoConvert</a> property to <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/builtin-types/bool">true</a>, all convertible characters will be 
        automatically converted accordingly to the input mask. For example, if set 
        the input mask to "A", by hitting a lower case character the control automatically 
        converts the character into an upper case. 
      </p>
<p>
        If SBCS is entered in a DBCS input mask, the entered character will be automatically 
        converted to DBCS. Also a DBCS space will be automatically converted to a SBCS space 
        when the control allows only SBCS.
