i have a text box on a form that only is one line right now.
the user wants the text box to expand as they enter data so that they can see the all the text when it goes over one line. the way it works right now they can only see one line at a time.

if you need clarification just ask!!
if its not possible also let me know...
thanks in advance!!

I'm sure that it's not impossible considering that you can change the Width and Height in the format section of a text box properties. Most of these properties can be changed through VBA as well. Unfortunately I don't know how. I also am not sure at which Event we'd place the code.. ;-) I'm sure some genius here knows how to do it.

So the news is good! It's not impossible. Aren't I a huge help?
