You need to look at Form Fields. The Text Form Field, which you can define
its maximum input size, will be perfect for this.

Hello,

I have a table in a document with about 6 rows. It is more like a
form, where there is a label and the user of this document can enter
the value next to that particular label in each of the rows. Now, I
need to fix the field length of one of the rows to 2000 characters.

I thought that the best way to do this would be to insert a textbox in
the 'value' column of that field. I used the Drawing Toolbar to insert
a textbox. I have one main problem here. When I type in the text, it
either goes out of the range or is displayed vertically. I have the
following combinations in the Properties for each of those:

1. The text which I input into the textbox goes out of the range
(which means, it goes outside of my table and outside of the word
document. The combinations:

Autosize: False
Integral Height: True
MultiLine: True
SelectionMargin: False
WordWrap: True

2. The text is entered vertically. The combinations:

Autosize: True
Rest same

I do not know what to do. Can someone please help?

Thanks in advance.
Dimple.
