Text box limitation?

[zlauffenburger]

Is it possible to have the size of the text box be the max character input, e.i. instead of having "Max Chars:___" equal to a number, have the size of the text box determine the number of characters entered?

Thanks

In the TextBox properties you have the option to choose "Limit Length to Visible Area".

If you choose this option, the text box will accept characters only upto the visible size of it.

Can this be done in Designer 7.0, or only in later versions?

Thanks for the help.
