limit characters

How to limit the number of characters in an edit text view ?

You can use the TextChanged event to check the length of the text. If the length is too large than truncate it using SubString.

My intention is to limit while input itself . Particular edittext should accept and show only 2 characters . We did it in basic4ppc with the help of a dll . Can't we do it here ?

I think that you will get the same behavior. When the user will try to enter any additional character, it will be automatically deleted.
