Is it possible to use a subform on a report for entry?

[Whizbang]

I am attempting to design a database for surveys. Some user will create a survey with however many questions they want. Then other users will answer thos questions. What I would like to do is to take advantage of the ability of report fields to grow, and have the questions be in a report, with a subform for each question to allow the user to enter the answer. I could easily do this in a form, but form fields do not grow/shrink with the text contained therein. I would like the user to be able to just scroll down and read all the questions in one long form, and have a spot on each question to fill in the answer.

Thoughts/suggestions?

Cannot do data entry/edit on reports, even if the subreport is a form object.

One feature you could look into is the ZoomBox. There are several ways of implementing it - use the advanced search feature of this forum and search for zoombox, you'll get lots of ideas.

The idea here is that you could present your survey questions with a moderately sized text box for the answers, but if the users wanted a bigger box to put longer answers in (and still see most or all of their text), they could for example double-click on the smaller text box to "Zoom" to the bigger one.
