Question : Automatic resizing of forms and text boxes

When data is inputted into a text box, I would like the box to grow vertically so that the entire text can be seen, and for the display to remain expanded.  At the same time, I would like the continuous form itself to grow vertically in response to the expanded text boxes.  This will give the most efficient and compact data display for my database.  Any suggestions on how this could be done, with code examples?  With thanks.

Answer : Automatic resizing of forms and text boxes

With a continuous form you're just out of luck, you can't change the detail sections individually.
Thus my proposal to use a main/subform combination that will allow you to show the text in a separate large textbox on the main form.
The other option is to have an additional toggle button to allow the user to enlarge/shrink the textbox by code like that provided by rockiroads.
