Locking Text Field Size (Characters)` 1

[LizSara]

Morning,

does anyone know of a way to lock the size of a text field down to characters (say 10 for example)? i know you can lock size and position but doesn't that only lock what is displayed not entered?

Was it a parameter you wanted to limit to only 10 characters entry or did you only want to display the first 10 characters or similar?

You could replace the text field with a formula:

left({table.string},10)

-LB
