How to set max length of datagridview column

Question

I have a DataGridView where the units can be entered in a TextBox column.

How do I restrict the input length of this column to 6 characters?

Answer 1

Use the MaxInputLength property of the DataGridViewTextBoxColumn.

This property is available through the Designer or through code:

((DataGridViewTextBoxColumn)dataGridView1.Columns[yourColumn]).MaxInputLength = 6;
