word 2002
I want my merged documents to be static in size.
what is happening to me now is, some merge records are 3 pages long and some
are half page long.
I want just 1 page per record.
How can I put all variable length data in a text box with scroll bars?
Thanks

Word is a word processing program and that is NOT a normal word processing
feature.  It cannot be done.

Thanks for your response.
There a lot features in Word that are NOT a normal word processing
feature. Objects, ask field and so on.

Thanks again

But you find them in most word processors and their results can be printed
onto paper.  You can't do that with a scrolling text box.
