I have a form of which there is a text box.I know how to set it up to go to
the next line upon pressing the enter key. But why is it that I can type just
so far and it just stops and I can't enter anymore text. I'm sure it's some
setting but not sure what. Thanks.

Is this TextBox bound to a field in an underlying table? If so, what kind
of field is it and how big is the field?

Yes, the TextBox is bound to a field in an underlying table. The size was set
to 50 and I just set it to 255 which is the largest number it can be set to.
Is there a way to set its size to an unlimited number. thanks

You can change your field in the table to a "memo" field. There is still a
limit but I think it is 65536.

Excellent, That works great. Thanks so much.
