AUTOEXTEND datafiles extending past MAXSIZE?

756582Feb 26 2010 — edited Mar 22 2010

I am looking at the datafiles of a database I just inherited. AUTOEXTEND is active and NEXT and MAXSIZE are set for the datafiles. What's puzzling me is that several of the datafiles show an actual SIZE much greater than MAXSIZE. One of the datafiles recently extended again past MAXSIZE. I didn't think this was possible. Obviously I'm missing something. Can anyone clarify this?
