EditBox Class
A class that displays a multi-line input edit box.
The character to be displayed is the value of the Value property. String, Number, Fixed, Date, and UString can be specified forValueType, but two types, String and UString, are useful for the purpose of using the edit box.
In the String type specification, the internal character code is a platform-dependent multi-byte character code (Shift-JIS in the Japanese environment).
In the UString type, the internal character code is Unicode, which makes it possible to handle a wider variety of characters.
In Windows98 and ME, the Unicode input function at the OS level is not supported, so Unicode-specific characters cannot be input or displayed, and cannot be specified together with the MaxLength property.
Since Ver.5.0.0, it is possible to use the Insert key to switch between insert mode and overwrite mode.
Screen Display Example

Enclose the characters in a rectangle and display them.
Even if the UString type is specified, all characters are converted to multibyte when printing, so Unicode -specific characters are printed as “?”.
