Sorry, but I doubt that this is going to be easy to do. Obviously
she does not want to use a scroll bar.
Possibility: create a macro to do this. It should be assigned to
the Text modified Event in the Event tab of the Properties window.
(Use the Control icon in the Design toolbar to open the Properties
window.) I have no idea as to what this macro should be nor if it is
possible.
One more note: This field is has enough space between it and the
bottom of the page for the maximum number of lines she would be
entering.
