auto expanding text box

[Antonio]

Is there a way to set the properties of a text box on a
form to expand (grow) based on the amount of text that is
being displayed in the text box?
I know this is the case for a text box on a report, but
has anyone found a way around this for a text box on a
form? Either through the property settings or some code
behind the text box?
TIA

Thank you very very much.

See:

TextHeightWidth.zip is a replacement for the Report object's TextWidth
and TextHeight methods. It is multiline aware and can work in both
Report and Form views. Includes a sample report to show you how to
autosize individual controls with different formatting on the same line
to simulate RTF style text.

am not sure how learn and adapt what was presented to my
current needs....not really all that fluent with VBA
module, On current, On load examples you provided....

Well, I went out and purchased a book called "Teach
Yourself Visual Basic 6"....I take it that this is a good
place to start learning about code behind a form? Or did
I get the wrong book?
