Gets or sets the maximum number of characters or bytes that the control can hold.
Syntax

Public Property MaxLength As Integer
 
'Usage
 
Dim instance As GcTextBox

Property Value

The number of characters or bytes (determined by the LengthAsByte property) that can be entered into the control.
The default is zero.
Exceptions
ExceptionDescription
If value is less than zero, an ArgumentOutOfRangeException is thrown.
Remarks
The MaxLength property allows you to limit the number of characters a user can enter in the control. The default value is 0, which does not limit the number of characters. Any number greater than 0 indicates the maximum number of characters. The MaxLengthUnit effects the displayed result along with the MaxLength property.
