Default memo type field is truncating on form

I have designed a form that displays a comments field. It
is a data type of memo. When the field displays the text
is truncating. How do I display the entire contents of
the comments memo? I've already set the Can grow property
to yes. I don't know where else to look. Thanks for your
help! cm

If you have the format of the memo field set to CAPS the
field will only display 255 characters. You should also
make sure that the memo field isn't restricted in size due
to limitations of the form size itself.
