Description
Returns count of items in a control. For an edit table control, the LIMIT property returns a count of columns, with a count of rows @FM-delimited from that column value. For example, an edit table that has three columns with two rows in each column will return 3:@FM:2. You can use Set_Property to limit the length of the text that the user can enter into an edit control (edit line or edit box).
Usage
itemcount = Get_Property (objectname, "LIMIT")
itemcount = Set_Property (objectname, "LIMIT", limit)
Returns
Values returned by Get_Property:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| itemcount | Number of items in the specified control. When control is an edit table, <1> is the number of columns; <2> is the number of rows. |
| Limit | Limit size to the length of the text the user can enter in the control. If this param is 0, the text length limit is set to 65,535 bytes. |
