Multiple Text Boxes with varying size

Hello,
I have several text boxes in the details section of a report. They are text
boxs that will create a letter based on a combination of standard text and
fields - mostly using the & command. These input fields will vary in length,
so then my text printed on the report will vary within each text box. How do
I keep them to show in order? For example, the second text box, displays at
a fixed starting point while the first text box can shrink or go based on
user input.

I tried to put everything in one text box, but after a while, it wouldn't
allow any more characters.
Thanks in advance!

If your text box are one above another, then just make sure
the the top of one does not overlapo the botton of the one
above it. Set all of them CanShrink and CanGrow to Yes,
same for the section that contains the text boxes.
 
Thanks that's working fine!
