How do I make a textbox so it display the letters in uppercase no matter what case the person enters it in. I know about ">" but I don't want to have to specify a certain number of characters. And I know about "UCase" but I don't know how I could get it so that It doesn't have to change it when you leave the field.
 
The best way is to change it when you leave the field. Only other way would be to have code in the keypress event that inspected the key pushed and changed it to capital automatically.

Place the ">" in the field's format property and you won't have to specify a number of characters.

placing a > in the field's format property limites the number of char's in that field to 255... the most for a text field... this wont work for a memo field... it'll limit the memo field no matter how many is allowed at table level...
