Is there a way to change the maximum length of a text form field without
losing all the text already entered?
Thanks!

I just answered my own questions (as usual, immediately after giving up and
posting)

1) Lock form
2) Select text in field and cut
3) Unlock form
4) Right click field, Properties, Change maximum length
5) Lock form agagin
6) Paste copied text into newly adjusted field
