I have a situation where I am creating a form that has a text field area
to be filled in. The form needs to be set up so that text may be typed
in or the page printed blank and the info written in by hand.
I need the field to have about 4 lines (as in drawn straight black
lines) so that when printed out, a person can write on them by hand. I
also, however, want to be able to type on these lines. Currently my
solution is to have 4 cells stacked on top of each other with the
bottom border of each cell turned on. This works, but it is annoying
to have to tab down to each cell while typing in information
(especially when going back and making corrections). I would ideally
want to have the lines within ONE cell with word wrap turned on so that
I could just type away and have it wrap without worrying about tabbing.
However, I need to have drawn straight lines there.
An alteranative (and probably better approach) is finding a way of
setting a different default overflow cell. By default, excel overflows
data from one cell to the adjacent cell. Is it possible to set the
overflow cell to be the cell below it?
Thanks in advance.
