    1.  How much text can be typed into the Long Text entry box?

    2.  There is a key question at the beginning of our form that must answered:  Do you have a masters, yes or no.   is there a way to stop the person from continuing with the rest of the form if the answer is no? 


    Thank you - I was so happy to find this site to help me!

    Please note that Long Text Entry / textarea fields can hold up to 40k characters which is virtually unlimited.

    You can also set the max character which you want to allow your users to input in Long Text Entry field. Please check the screenshot below:
