Peter,
I have a routine that will resize a text field with 1 or more lines(also
works for buttons). Have you solved the problem yet? If not I will send it
to you. It's part of my mobile resizing library.

Here's a start:
on rawKeyUp
set the height of fld mytext to the formattedHeight of fld mytext
pass rawKeyUp
end

I do this differently than the other answers, and only for the height.
I stick what needs to be in the field in it, then
put the top

Hi Peter - if the width of the field remains fixed then you can do something as
simple as this
put the rect of fld x into tRect
put (item 2 of tRect
Maybe something like this:
on mouseUp
put the topLeft of fld myField into TL
put the formattedRect of line 1 to -1 of fld myField into theRect
put the margins of fld myField into M
if number of items of M = 1 then put M,M into M
subtract item 1 of M from item 1 of theRect
