When using an input mask, "0" represents a required digit, "9" represents an optional digit (which can be left blank), and "#" represents any digit or space. Therefore, the value of "1" would not indicate anything significant when displayed between the mask characters.

However, when using an input mask that includes literal display characters (such as "-" or "/"), it is important to indicate which characters should be stored in the database and which should not. To do this, use the ";" character in the input mask. Any characters that appear between two ";" characters will be stored in the database along with the inputted data, while any characters that appear between two "#" or "0" characters will not be stored.

Therefore, if the value of ";;" displays between the input mask characters, this indicates that literal display characters should not be stored in the database.
