Maximum characters in cell
Thank you very much - made my Friday!

It won't prevent someone pasting text but it will prevent someone from keying in text Btw, the number of characters are officially around 32000 but only 1024 are visible although that can be changed using alt + enter on a regular basis -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "atvandle" wrote in message ... Does anyone know of a way to prevent users from continuing to enter information in a cell once the max number of characters has been reached? One option would be to count characters. I know there is a way to count words, Is there a way to count "characters". Since the max is 250 per cell, a counterin the adjacent cell would work. Any help please Ann |
