positioned subfield wrapped in flowed subfield not page breaking

[thin_line]

I have a text field in a positioned subform. that subform is in a flowed subform. I want it to break on to the next page, but it just flows off the bottom of the page without adding a new page and even goes over my master page footer items.

all items are set to allow page breaks. text box is set to allow multiple lines and fit to y.

It works when I get rid of the positioned subform, however I want that subform so i can have other elements side by side with the text field and maintain the layout.

I read in here that "The field can be in a positioned subform, but its parent must be flowed (it might be different than the page subform)."

why isn't this working for me

here is the link http://www.grantwalker.info/box/test.pdf

Thanks!

The untitled subform that the message and the checkbox are located in must be set to autofit in theY direction on the Layout tab. You set the field to autofit but not the subform that it is housed in (the positioned subform).
