Thanks Suzanne, but I do not want them to be able to enter a new line at
all. The progammable macro doesn't seem like it will work, due to the fact
that the form will be protected. The form must be protected. Any other
ideas?

Thanks again,
Ray

How can I limit users from entering a new line in a form field? I have
limited the number of charaters, but after protection is applied the user
can still hit the enter key. I don't want to ruin the spacing on the
page.
Thanks,
Ray
