Wrapping text in user form field

[Carol]

I have 2 questions:

1. How do I get text to wrap in a user form field? I
don't see that option in the properties sheet in Visual
Basic.
2. I want to create the items in the combo box on my user
form. I don't see a category in the properties sheet to
add the itesm and the "drop-down form field options"
dialog box does not seem to apply to user forms.

I am using Word 2000.

I appreciate any help you can provide.

Hi Carol,

For future questions along these lines, you may find you'll
get a quicker response in one of the word.vba groups (such as
word.vba.beginners or word.vba.userforms)

1. How do I get text to wrap in a user form field? I
don't see that option in the properties sheet in Visual
Basic.

Look for the Multiline property and set it to True

2. I want to create the items in the combo box on my user
form. I don't see a category in the properties sheet to
add the itesm and the "drop-down form field options"
dialog box does not seem to apply to user forms.

A combobox must be loaded using VBA code. This is often done
in the Form's Initialize event, but could also be the result
of some other action (such as clicking a button). Look for
the .AddItem method in the UserForms HELP files.
