Could someone please tell me how to change the size of a textbox
when using the EditCommand on a datagrid?  When a user selectes
"edit" I want to make the box wider.  What I am trying to do below
is producing an error - 
    'size' is not a member of 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox'.


Sub ShowMessages_Edit(sender As Object, e As DataGridCommandEventArgs)
    ShowMessages.EditItemIndex = e.Item.ItemIndex 
    Dim exp as textbox = CType(e.Item.Cells(0).Controls(0), TextBox)
    exp.size = "65"
    BindGrid()
End Sub 



Thanks,


Rob

Hi Rob,

You should use the "Width" property instead.
