I want to use a text field on a form in word 2007, but I need to limit the
size to three lines. Can i define the max size of the box in my design mode so that it doesn't affect the formatting of the rest of the form if they don't fill in the entire three lines? |

I was looking into the same thing and am trying the same solution but
when the length is reach the text doesn't stop, so if I'm typing and not looking it will continue but not show the text. Is there any way to prevent this? |
