InfoPath Dev

Hey guys, 

Im in the middle of creating a Infopath form and come across an issue, im trying to put a few paragraphs of text in a text box so the user can scroll through and just read the text, it has to be a scrolling box as it has to fit on one page. They dont need to do anything with the text just read it.

Ive looked around to no avail, I tried the value in the rich text box properties but this only allows one line and will take an age.

The idea is for the user to read the text and then agree that they've read it to submit the form, any fancy ideas of how I can do that?

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advanced!

Any reason why the text needs to be contained within a text box (or other control) instead of just typing the text directly into the form canvas?

If you need to show/hide the text, you could always type it into a section, and then hide the section. This would allow for rich text and paragraph breaks.

Is this a browser form or a filler form?  If it's a 2010 filler form, I believe you have the option of a scrollable section, and then you could just enter in the text like Ernesto is describing.

Hey guys,

The idea was to have a couple of pages of text confined to a scrollable window which users could read through instead of them having to scroll down a web page to read the text so the form would stay on one page, make sense? The user wouldnt have to do anything other than read the text.

Any how the spec has since changed so this is now longer needed, but i still wouldnt mind knowing for the future? Any ideas

We already gave you some ideas.  Did you check them out?
