Default Word 2007 question

Hi DBourbeau,

By default, formfields in Word expand to accommodate whatever you type into them. Conversely, they can be set to a particular
maximum character count. If the State agency has done the latter, that's a clear indication they expect you to limit your answer to
the space available.

I receive a Word 2007 form with fields to fill in. The fields are not large
enough for some of the information. Is there any way to extend these fields?
I've tried saving the document in various ways, but it is protected. It
came from a State Agency. Is there any way around it? Without recreating
the entire document?

Thanks.
