Stop page 2

[Ulf Nilsson]

Hi,
Is it possible to hinder text from go over to another page?

I have a document that I want only to be on one page, that is, hinders users
to write too much text.

Use a table cell with a fixed height (and no borders); although this
won't prevent users from typing "too much," the excess text will not
display and it won't add any pages to the document.

Hej Stefan!
I have thought about the table-solution. It does work, but it does not look
good. Isn't there any other solution? A function in Word or a macro hidden
somewhere?

A macro would have to verify, every time something was typed, that the
text did not flow onto the next page. I suspect this would be very
complex (if it is even possible).

What exactly is the problem with using a table?

It is unclear what you haven't used: tables at all or fixed-height
tables? Table basics are described in detail at
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/tblsfldsfms/TableBasics.htm. For more on
"drawing a line" using tables and borders, see
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/tblsfldsfms/LinesInForms.htm (the article
also has links to a series of articles by Dian D Chapman on creating
protected forms, which may or may not be relevant for your needs).
