Expanding text field in table

Hi,

I’m pretty inexperienced with Live Cycle and was hoping I could get some help using text fields within a table.

I’m creating a form with a table into which the user enters information. I’d like the row height in the table to adjust to the amount of text entered into the text field so as that if necessary the table will expand onto a subsequent page.

The table exists within a subform and the text fields exist with in the table. In searching this forum I seen talk of dynamic tables but not sure how to achieve this.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Graeme

To make the textfields grow you need to select 'Expand to Fit' under height in the Layout tab. In terms of going onto another page you need to select 'Allow Page Breaks within Content' in the Object>Field tab and make sure your subform is flowed not positioned.
