First of all, thank you for your time - I'm on a deadline to produce and I'm freakin' out that this may not be possible.
All I am trying to do is build a simple form that has about (7) text fields. Each one of these text fields could contain anywhere from one sentence to six paragraphs of narrative. All I want the text field's box to do is grow along with the content and break to another page if needed. I've been able to create a Text field that allows the lengthy data to be entered (multiple lines / expand to fit Y), but the text field's box does not grow, it adds a scroll bar instead! Sadly, this is not what I need. I need the narrative to be easily visible for viewing and print-out.
Based on other suggestions, I've done the following as well:
I created the text field (allow multiple lines, expand to fit), wrapped it in a subform (flowed, expand height, allow page breaks), then tried setting parent subform to both positioned and flowed. That didn't work so I changed the subform containing the text field to positioned with the parent subform to flowed - no luck. I toggled the form properties to both static and dynamic with these settings, no joy.
If anyone happens to have a sample form where this works properly I would just be tickled pretty? Maybe I could take a look at the settings to help figure out what's going on.
Thank you for helping...I'm freakin' out. The project I'm working on is largely dependent on this form.
