I would like a Help box for a form but the text I want in it is too long for
the basic dropdown field help.  The text is in the format of a table.

All help is appreciated.

You can put a lot of information in a message box run on entry to a field
(or from an AutoNew macro

Sub PopUpAdvice()
MsgBox "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet," & _
   "consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam" & _
   "nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut" & _
   "aoreet dolore magna aliquam erat" & _
   "volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam," & _
   "quis nostrud exerci tation ullamcorper" & _
   "suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex" & _
   "ea commodo consequat. Lorem ipsum dolor" & _
   "sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit," & _
   "sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt" & _
   "ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. " & vbCr & vbCr & _
   "Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam," & _
   "quis nostrud exerci tation ullamcorper" & _
   "suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex" & _
   "ea commodo consequat. Duis autem vel" & _
