...where the documentation states: Name: width Class: Width Configure Option: -width Specifies an integer value indicating the desired width of the entry window, in average-size characters of the widget's font. If the value is less than or equal to zero, the widget picks a size just large enough to hold its current text. ---- What the requester was asking for was a limitation on input, not display. A validate callback is the way to go, I believe, as the poster mentioned. jpt _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/listinfo/perl-win32-users
