Last reviewed: October 27, 1994

Article ID: Q61173

Summary:

In Microsoft File, to wordwrap Text or Memo fields, try one of the following two procedures:

  From the Form menu, choose Show Form. a. On the Form menu, deselect List Helper to create a custom form. b. Put the cursor at the bottom of the field so that it becomes an      arrow pointing in both directions, then click and drag the hide line down until the form becomes as large as necessary. c. Again, put the cursor at the bottom of the field so that it      becomes the two-headed arrow. Click and drag the bottom of the line down as far as is necessary to show all the text. 

-or-

  From the Form menu, choose Show Form and drag the field until it is as large as desired. With List Helper selected under the Form menu, this procedure will widen all the fields equally. Note: To show all text, the fields must be long enough and wide enough to enclose all the text that has been typed in the biggest field.
