Text box size!
Hello everyone!
I am a new user of the access software..My problem comes with the text box component..I was wondering if the size of it can grow or shrink with the data it holds.For example if i have a number 123 inside the text box has a size and when the number inside becomes 1234556866949 the size of the text box can become bigger so as to fit the number (i want all the number to be viewable). Thanks in advance!!!! -- Message posted via AccessMonster.com http://www.accessmonster.com/Uwe/For...forms/200512/1

Just make the box as large as your largest number. Depending on the
formatting of your box you should not really have any idea how large it is anyway. Are you outlining it or doing something that gives away the size of the box to the user? -- Rick B "Giorgos Louloudis via AccessMonster.com" u14243@uwe wrote in message news:58d5489ef3184@uwe...

Thanks in advance!!!! Your users may find it a little odd-looking, but if you're comfortable with VB code, have a look at what UI wizard Stephen Lebans has posted he http://www.lebans.com/textwidth-height.htm -- Dirk Goldgar, MS Access MVP www.datagnostics.com (please reply to the newsgroup)
