SYMPTOMS
If you change the MaxLength property of an edit box, it reverts back to 0 after you press ENTER and move to another property.



WORKAROUND
To get the MaxLength property to accept a number place an equal sign (=) in front of the number you enter (for example, =25).



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in Visual FoxPro 3.0b for Windows.

Steps to Reproduce Problem

 * 1) Place an edit box on a form.
 * 2) Change the MaxLength property to 20, and press ENTER or click the check box.
 * 3) Move to a different property; for example, press UP ARROW to move to Margin. The number you typed changes back to 0 (zero).
