Text box - Cannot enter more than one line

[Elena]

I am using word 2003. I have created a form with text boxes. The form will be
protected.

I have two problems:
1) the user cannot enter text over multiple lines. The text entered remains
on one line and does not automatically go to the next line when it reaches
the end of the text box
2) when you press "enter", it takes you straight to the next text box. I
would like it to take you to the next line

Form fields and text boxes are mutually incompatible. If you want the text
in a box, use a table cell or frame. Text form fields in should by default
allow you to create a new line by pressing enter when the form is protected
for forms. Though see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/211219
