textbox size limit

[fishman13]

Is there a way to set a value for the number of characters a text box can hold. I have a text box that is not tied to any control source that needs to hold up to 50 characters. Is there any way to set this limit without using 50 "X"s for an input mask.

Thanks

Fishman:

Yes, set the MAXLENGTH property.

You could also use the INPUTMASK property of the textbox. Mike Gagnon

Hi Fishman,

myTextBox.MaxLength = 50

Also
myTextBox.Format = !X
if you want all capital and alphanumeric. There is no need to repeat that for each and every character required.
