Hey guys,
I have a field which is text and its length 200
how can I wrap the text in a field within a form, say in 50 char field length, so the user can scroll within the field to read the whole text.
thanks

Textboxes will wrap to the width they are set to. There is a Scrollbars property that can be set to Vertical.
