I can't seem to find anywhere in the propperties of a textbox, where it
is possible to set the max number of letters a user can write. I only
want a user to input max two letters in a textbox. Where can this be
done ?

Hi,

If the text box is bound to a field, open the containing table in
design view and set the field size property to 2.

If the text box is unbound, with the form in design view, enter "??" in
the input mask property.

Cheers - David

Use an Input Mask on the control
