Field in form won't grow with text size

Hey,
Access 03 on XP Pro.

I have a tabular form and the fields won't grow (the setting is set to yes)
when the data in the field is too large. I want the thing to text wrap and
it won't do it.

Can grow is set to yes.

Could anything else be holding it up?
Thanks

Read VBA Help regarding CanGrow.

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.

So how do I make the boxes expand automatically in form view? That was my
goal by selecting can grow.

I want it to be as tight as the data will allow, while still showing
everythign.

Thanks
