Maximum Length Of Listbox

[dilbert0610]

I am pulling lines of data from a text file and putting them into a listbox. I am noticing that it is cutting off some of the data towards the end of the line.. Is there a maximum length or ammount of characters that can be placed into one line of a listbox? If not are there some setting that i need to change for this?

I have tried with 4 000 characters, and it works.

If you were only concerned about your visible text, then set the HorizontalScrollbar property to True.

Yeah I do have the scrollbar set to true. I am not sure whats happening. I changed the font size of the listbox to 7.85 instead of 8.25 and now all the characters show up. If I go back to anything higher than 7.85 it cuts off the last 12 characters. I have it set to 7.85 so I guess its fixed for now.. not the way I would have wanted it becuase we have a bunch of old people who can't read small text . But it works for now.. Thanks for the help I appreciate it.

I Have found the same problem when using Microsoft Sans Serif, but it worked fine with Arial 9,75 for example.

It seems that you have to try different fonts and/or sizes to have it work.
