Default Text Form Field in Table

Hello Everyone,

I am creating a form to be used internally. I am using several tables for formating purposes. When I place a text field in the table and type something in the field, it scrolls all the way off of the page instead of wrapping around to the next line once reaching the right margin. Is there a way to change this so that the text does wrap around? Thanks!

Make sure that the table cell is set to wrap the text (and not resize
automatically).

I too am having that problem. I expected to find
a "Format Cells" option like in Excel, but it's not
there. Where do I set the "wrap text" option?
