I have a text box on which I have set "Can Grow" and "Can Shrink" to yes.
But it seems to neither grow nor shrink. The values in it are a string with
a number of vbcrlf's in it. So it looks like a list. Can anyone tell me
what I'm doing wrong?

TIA

Just making a perfectly reasonable assumption which disagrees with the reality
of Microsoft's implementation.

Can Grow and Can Shrink (on a Form) apply only when the form is printed, not
to display on a screen.
