That works for single line responses but when I have a paragraph that needs
to be typed and I want it to fit in a "lined" area, how do I get it to wrap
to fit the lined document? I don't know if this makes sense cause I'm not
sure how to do this kind of thing but really do think there is a way.

I think you'll have to give up on the idea of having lines behind
the paragraph responses.

Check out http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFl...Forms.htm.What
you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." For more about
online forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles.

Hope this helps,

You can put in a fixed-size table cell. Behind that table, put a graphic of
lines. It is a lot of work getting the lines to match up with the line
height for a particular font, I don't think I would do it.
