Tables and forms.
I need to create a document that allows me to enter information in the tab
(table cell) without the size, frame or format changing. What I want is very simple but I can not get it to work. For example if I type "Name:" and right next to it I create a one cell table or form, when I enter the information the size of the box expands. I don't want that to happen. I need the box to stay the same without going to a second line or adding characters to the right. How can I do this? How can I lock the size of this box (table)? Can someone explain in detail? Pardon if I sounding way too ignorant about this. |

Turn off auto resizing in the table and set the cell to an exact row height
and preferred column width. -- Suzanne S.
