Cangrow with textbox in 2003

[The Shah]

Hi.

I am trying to use a textbox on a form that need to grow/shrink as text is
input in it by the user. I presume that I cannot do this in the datasheet
view.

I tried it with continuous form and the textbox still does not grow with the
additional text in the field. I have set the detail section of the form to
allow growing also.

What should I be doing?

You probably should be reading the VBA help file on Can Grow.

This property affects the display of form sections and controls only
when the form is printed or previewed, not when the form is displayed
in Form view, Datasheet view, or Design view.
