RichTextBox MaxLength doesn't work (for me)

I have a RichTextBox with MaxLength = 30 on a usercontrol.

I can type more that 30 characters into it.

Isn't the box supposed to stop accepting at 30???


Any idea what I may have wrong?

I can not type more than 30 characters. I'm using Framework 1.1.

Works for me as expected.

<msdn>
Note In code, you can set the value of the Text property to a value
that has a length greater than the value specified by the MaxLength
property. This property only affects text entered into the control at
run time.

I'm not doing it in code, I'm typing.
I'm also using 1.1
Now that I know it should work I'll inspect the code (rather large) more to
see if what's wrong.

Thanks
