>I have a textbox on a pageframe that contains a character string. If the string is longer than the width of the textbox I can't make the string longer than it was when the form was originally opened. When I get the the end of the original length the focus moves to the next control in the tab order. If I try to insert text in front or in the middle, the string is truncated at the original length.

It's always helpful to use InputMask property. For example, in Textbox.Init event:
This.InputMask=replicate('x',30)
will guarantee 30-char long input.
