Default variable field width and editing in subform.

So I did all that below, but now I want to edit info in the form view. I have
an invoice form, and within is a subform for the address, city, state, zip
etc.., the subform in the form view displays information I want, but does not
allow me to edit or alter information. How can I enable this?

Then put them into an unbound text box like this....


= ([StreetNumber] + " ") & [Street] & " " & [City] & ", " & [State] & " " &
[ZipCode]

I know I can set the height of a control to grow, but what about the

length?
An example of what I want to do: I am creating an address form from a
database where the street number, street, city, zip code, etc. are in
different fields but I want them to appear consequetively on the form. I
want them to run cleanly together and figure an expanding or shrinking
control length would allow me to place my controls and then have them

adjust
on the form as needed for each record.

Is this even possible?
