The limit isn't in the text box itself, it's in the properties of the table
field to which the text box is bound. Open the table in design view, click
on the field, and you'll see its Field Size property in the sheet below.
Assuming this is a Text field, you can increase the size up to 255. If you
need more characters than that, you'll have to change it to a Memo field.
