I'm not sure what the problem is. If you allow them to type as much as they
want, why do you need to control it going to a new page? Why do you need to
link at all? Trying to understand.

Hi anne,
I have tried the textbox from the forms toolbar, but can't do a text link
to
continue on another page. Though, when protected, you can type in it.
Used
just a 'textbox' and set up a text link to another page, works perfect,
until
you protect the document. I have about a three line area in a form for
someone to type prognosis of a concern. What I want to do is eliminate
the
4th line break, which will add a space to my form, which then will bring
the
bottom parts of my form to a new page. I don't want that, I would like my
professionals to be able to type to their hearts content, if need be, but
just continue with a text link to another page automatically, all this
while
the form is protected. I haven't found the answer to that yet. Maybe you
have an idea or two that I haven't as of yet, tried???

I have a form that may, at times, need to be continued on a sepearate
page.
I insert a text box from the control toolbox and would like to do a
text
link, where, if there is not enough room to type everything, instead of
wrecking the format of the form by to many line breaks, it will
continue
on
another page. I can do it with a regulare text box, but then when I
protect
the form, you cannot get into it to type what you need to type, whereas
with
the control box text box, you can, but I can't get it to do a text
link.
Can
anyone out there help please.

Thanks
