[vba]
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Me.TextBox1.MaxLength = 200
End Sub
[/vba]
IF you want to give the user a little feedback, then
[VBA]Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
If TextBox1.TextLength > 10 Then
MsgBox "Too long"
TextBox1.Text = Left(TextBox1.Text, TextBox1.TextLength - 1)
End If
End Sub[/VBA]Leave the Maxlength at 0 and let this sub manage it.
Perfect... Thanks:thumb
Hi there. I get an "object required" error message if I try running that code. Has anyone else had the same issue?

Anyways, as to your issue - I would suggest you start your own thread. Certainly include a link to this one for your initial question, but a new thread not only helps you, but others searching later.
Now to your question - what code errors? Presuming the TextBox is named TextBox1, both Tinbendr's code and mine seems to run, so please show us exactly how you wrote the code that fails.
Hope to help,
