How to limit the number of characters in a cell?

Dear Excel forum members,

I would like to limit the number of characters in a cell. How shall I do?

If a name is 50 characters long and I set up the limit at 30, will the 30
characters appear or will I receive an error message?

Thanks a lot for your help!
