Limit data in text box

P

Phillip

Hi,
I have a text box of a set size and font size. I don't want the user to
enter more data than what will fit is the box. How do I limit the imput?
Right now the data scrolls in the box after the box is full. The can grow is
set to no, but I don't know what else to do.
Your help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Phil

Hi,

There are several ways you can limit what the user can type in the text box.

You can adjust the format for the input text by right clicking on the object.

Also, you can also insert an input mask(check in Access Help " How to insert
input mask")

Hope this helps,

Vicente
