Textbox question

[Heinz Fischer]

Hi everybody,

I would like to know how to limit the number of characters for a line in a textbox and
a listbox.

With my code I can't limit it ...

tbstyle&=%ES_LEFT OR %ES_MULTILINE OR %ES_WANTRETURN OR %ES_AUTOHSCROLL OR %ES_AUTOVSCROLL
CONTROL ADD TEXTBOX,hdlg&,%idtext1,"",10,55,480,215,tbstyle&,%WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE

Wen I populate the textbox with the Power Basic Readme-File the textbox produces very very
long lines.

Maybe you can give me an better working example.

Best regards
Heinz Fischer

Heinz,

Omit "%ES_AUTOHSCROLL" if you want the text to wrap and not to scroll horizontally, that's the easiest way.
