    Text Box problem.

    On my Form, I have a Text Box, in which a user will
    type any message. Whenever I type in or pasted some
    test line by line on it, the Text Box successfully
    accepted all the text without any limit. But if a
    WORD document of a big length is pasted on it, or a
    decrypted message of big length is transferred from my
    application, it shows a length of 65535 characters, and
    the rest of the message is lost.

    What is the problem?

    A regular TextBox is limited to 64K data at least on Win9x. Use a RichTextBox instead since it's only limited to the available memory.

    Joacim,
    Originally I wanted to do the other way. Please go to my question in the following link:

    I wanted to totally remove the concept of using a Text Box for typing a message. I wanted to capture the Active Window on the desktop.
