I went back to VFP 3.0 and my MaxLength will not save as anything other than 0.

Does your MaxLength store a number other than 0?

What about this in the KeyPress method:

if len(THIS.value)=9
keyboard '{TAB}'
endif

This will chop the length at 10 characters as the last key you've pressed will not yet be added to the value. You might want to add a property to your TextBox class instead of having to code the number. You might also want to make sure the user didn't press a navigation key before doing this code (eg. if they hit Tab as their 10'th character in this example, they'll fly right by the next field I would think).
