I'm writing an application with a TextBox control on its main form.
I'm running the application under WinXP Pro, so (as I understand it)
there should be no practical limit to the number of characters in a
text box.
However, when I paste in a large amount of text, the text box
truncates it at exactly 32K characters. This is a problem, because I
need to know exactly how many of each character were pasted; besides,
I wasn't expecting the text box to "fill up" under normal
circumstances.
Why would my text box truncate text at 32K, when I'm absolutely sure I
was able to paste much more than 32K of text in the same application
before?

Hi,
I do remember this was discussed a couple of months ago. Take a look at the

Okay - I found the "problem". My paste code was setting SelectedText.
It seems that SelectedText truncates any string at 32K characters,
even though there's nothing about this in the documentation.
I'm now setting Text instead, and it works correctly.

Hi all,
I've worked out that the limit of a textbox is 64Kb. What can I do if
the I want to work with text which is, say four or five times as much?
Can I extend the limit (maxlength??) of the text box or do I have to
change the textbox for some other component? And yes, I'm very very
new to VB ;)
Thank you.

Hi all.
Does a textbox on an Access form have an equivalent of the VB6 .MaxLength property? I need to limit the length of an input string. It's not bound to anything, just used in code, but I'd prefer to limit it in the control rather than validating afterward.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
