Expanding Fields

Hi Everyone,

I have created a form in FileMaker v11 on Windows 7, which has 3 text fields across and 25 text fields down and covers two A4 pages.

The form is used by staff to fill out, however, certain fields can have more text typed into them then can be printed out. Is there a way that I can make the fields automatically expand to accomodate the extra text that's typed and automatically move the fields down that are below?

Many thanks

For filling the form itself there is no easy way, for printing you can use larger text boxes and then use sliding to move those up.
