How do I change the fillin field box code size in Word 2003?

Users don't like the size of the fillin field box. They want to eliminate the
return codes and have it on a single line. Can it be done?

I don't know, but I would recommend that rather than spend a lot of time
with this you consider UserForms (custom dialog boxes) which are much more
flexible and powerful or online forms. For more about online forms, follow
the links at http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/FillinTheBlanks.htm especially Dian
Chapman's series of articles. For a start on UserForms, see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms/CreateAUserForm.htm.

If you would like my page of links on moving from Word Perfect to Word, let
me know. The two programs accomplish the same tasks in very different ways
some times.

Hope this helps,
