In VB.Net textboxes where I have set the MaxLength property I cannot insert or overwrite characters when the maximum length is reached. In VFP and other programs,I am used to the last letters scrolling off in insert mode, or the text being overwritten by the new keystrokes. The way it is I am forced to delete characters before I can change any others.

Does anyone know how to change this behaviour? It is unacceptable.
