This might be a PITA to do, but, its still a viable option. Maybe do something where when they attempt to enter into that Edit Box - take over control - capture all the keystrokes, and then you update the Edit Box via code - and keep a running count that way. The PITA part comes when they use a Backspace or Arrows.
So - not sure if this helps - but, it may be one option... -K- -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michael Oke, II Sent: Tuesday, January 29, 2013 12:12 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Character Count Trying to provide users with a count of the characters left in an edit box.
