I have on a report a summary comment box that is created on the fly via an
input parameter. As you know, the default input box that comes up allows only
for a few characters to be seen at the time of the input. Is there any way I
can make that input field larger to allow for the about 255 characters?
Thanks for any help.

Yes. You have to create an unbound form and place any input fields you want
on it. When the user makes the entry and clicks a button, then the query
and or report should run. The query will get the parameter from the form.

This will work fine. The user has already an unbound selection form; I can
just add the textbox for the input and then take the value of the input to
the appropriate report field. Thanks; I don't know why I have such a hard
time seeing the obvious :) but I remember for the next time.
