TComboBox.MaxLength Property

Specifies the maximum number of characters the user can type into the edit portion of the combo box.

Pascal

property MaxLength: Integer;

C++

__property int MaxLength;

Description

Use MaxLength to limit the number of characters that the user can enter into the edit portion of the combo box. A value of 0 indicates that there is no application-defined limit on the length.

Note: Setting MaxLength will not truncate the existing text, it merely prevents the user from adding more text after reaching the limit of MaxLength characters.

Note: Even when MaxLength is 0, there may be limitations imposed by the operating system on the number of characters that may be entered into an edit control.
