MaxLength Property (TextCellType)
Example 


Gets or sets the maximum number of characters allowed in the text cell.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property MaxLength As Integer
'Usage
 
Dim instance As TextCellType
Dim value As Integer
 
instance.MaxLength = value
 
value = instance.MaxLength
public int MaxLength {get; set;}

Property Value

Integer number of characters
Remarks

This is the number of characters that can be typed, not the number that can be displayed. If you enter text by setting the Text property for a cell, this property does not limit those characters, only what can be typed by a user when in edit mode.

Example
This example specifies how text can be displayed including the letter case, the length, and whether it can wrap to multiple lines.
FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.TextCellType txt = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.TextCellType();
txt.CharacterCasing = CharacterCasing.Upper;
txt.CharacterSet = FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.CharacterSet.Ascii;
txt.HotkeyPrefix = System.Drawing.Text.HotkeyPrefix.Show;
txt.MaxLength = 40;
txt.Multiline = true;
txt.PasswordChar = Convert.ToChar("*");
txt.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.Vertical;
txt.Static = true;
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[0, 0].CellType = txt;
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[0, 0].Text = "This is a text cell.  It can provide a wide range of" + " functionality for handling
a large amount of data that a user might want to include" + " in a single cell.";
Dim txt As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.TextCellType()
txt.CharacterCasing = CharacterCasing.Upper
txt.CharacterSet = FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.CharacterSet.Ascii
txt.HotkeyPrefix = System.Drawing.Text.HotkeyPrefix.Show
txt.MaxLength = 40
txt.Multiline = True
txt.PasswordChar = "*"
txt.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.Vertical

FpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(0, 0).CellType = txt
FpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(0, 0).Text = "This is a text cell.  It can provide a wide range of" & _

" in a single cell."
