     I an not sure I understand what you mean. The only thing in Base 
that has a mask that I know is a pattern field. It has two of them: an 
edit mask and a literal mask. The properties for this field are listed 
in the Control tool when the pattern field is highlighted.
     Are you talking about a field in a form? Is it a pattern field? Do 
you want to make the mask in the pattern field smaller but not the 
pattern field? If this is true, what you really want to do is to change 
the size of the font for this field. Click the field while holding down 
the Control button. This highlights the field but not its label. Then 
right click the field and select Control from the pop up window. Scroll 
down through the properties until you find the Font property. Click the 
ellipse (...) for the Font property to open the Character dialog. Reduce 
the size of the text, and click OK.
     If this is not what you want, will you please be more specific 
about what you have and what you want to do.
