Word limt on text box
Hi Please can someone help. I want to set a word limit on a text box of 1000 words. I have been able to set the character limit to 1000 characters on a legacy form text form field and then protecting the word doc. But this does not suit. Could an expression be used in the properties field? Would VBA be better? Or is there an alternative solution to adding a word limit to a text box. Does anyone know how to set a word limit on a textbox in word? Thanks in Advance |

The term "text box" has multiple meanings. Is this part of a vba userform? An ActiveX control? A graphic textbox in the document?
Why does the protected form method not suit? |

I have tried using the following:
Protecting the document was good for allowing just editing the text boxes. Hopefully that makes more sense? |
