    Hello,

    Does someone of you have some tips on how to limit the maximum number of characters in a text field or area?

    For instance : only 10 characters are allowed to fil in a text field.

    I tried to use the Router Setup but if there are less than 10 characters an error is generated.

    Regards,

    Peter

    Hi Peter,

    It looks like using REGEX may work for you. There was a post on this previously in the Community. Check this post out and if it's not quite what you need, let us know.

    Thank you.

    This validation expression works : ^.{1,10}$

    In this case max 10 characters in my Text field.
