    Remarks
    The MaxLength property allows you to limit the number of characters a user can enter in the control. The default value is 0, which does not limit the number of characters. Any number greater than 0 indicates the maximum number of characters. The C1.Win.C1Input.MaxLengthUnit effects the displayed result along with the MaxLength property.
