You can try setting the max to 5 but program it stop responding to keypresses at 4.

Based on the discussion with Sievajet, try this other solution:
textBox1.KeyDown += (sender, e) => {
TextBox tBox = sender as TextBox;
if (tBox.Text.Length == tBox.MaxLength)
e.SuppressKeyPress = true;
};
Note:
If you find that both solutions works, please choose Sievajet's answer as the good one, I'm more interested in the result, so maybe write me a comment.

It is sent anyway in the KeyDown event. You should change .KeyUp with .KeyDown to suppress it for good.
