VSFlexGrid Control > VSFlexGrid Properties, Events, and Methods > VSFlexGrid Properties > EditMaxLength Property |
Returns or sets the maximum number of characters that can be entered in the editor.
[form!]VSFlexGrid.EditMaxLength[ = value As Long ]
Set this property in the BeforeEdit event to limit the length of the text that may be entered while editing a cell.
Setting EditMaxLength to 0 allows editing of strings up to about 32k characters.
Changing this property while editing a cell does not affect the contents of the editor but will affect subsequent editing.
The following code will allow the user to enter only 4 characters into the cell being edited.
Private Sub fg_BeforeEdit(ByVal Row As Long, ByVal Col As Long, Cancel As Boolean)
fg.EditMaxLength = 4
End Sub
