Question re Textbox Component

[Stuart Ferguson]

Is there a way from a textbox that you can establish the maximum length
of the text that will be displayed in the textbox on the screen.

What i am not requring is the Max Length of the Textbox but the Maximum
Displayed Length.

Any help is appreciated

You can use the Columns property to set the displayed length of the textbox

Hello

No, there is no. You can create your own derived class which implements the
functionality. It will keep the original string in its private member and it
will set only a portion of it to Text property of the textbox.

Columns property is only can be applied to
System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox.

But for System.Windows.Forms.TextBox there is no such property.

More of it, Columns property is just for control's width setting. But you
can still scroll inside.
