Hi,

I've created a questionnaire using word forms, when they are completing the
form they are unable to press return in the text box to start a new line,
also if you type in the box and the text is longer than the box it hides the
text.

How do I get around this?

Thanks

Right-click the control to access its properties.
Then, make sure that the following properties are all set to True:
   EnterKeyBehaviour
   MultiLine
   WordWrap
and that the "Scrollbars" property is set to "2 - fmScrollBarsVertical"

Salut!

they cant get to the box to enter any text?

This should not be the case. Please explain how you created the textbox.
