    Make form and memo field grow and shrink automatically

    Hi,

    I have a form. It contains three Titles with fields(memo):

    Comment about the course

    Comment about the teacher

    Comment about the course location

    When looking at the form I would like it to grow and shrink automatically depending of the extent of the written text.
    (no scrollbar)

    Is this possible?

    Br Bertrand

    Forms don't have this behavior. That's why they have scroll bars. A textbox will display vertical scroll bar if you make it at least two lines tall.

    Reports have vertical grow and shrink behavior for textboxes.
