hello...
Not even sure how to ask this question (as I am new to database creation): I am creating a database for my new business (Insurance Inspections). I previously used TrackVia as an online database for a company I worked for before I went solo. In one of the Columns in the TrackVia database, entitled 'Notes', when you clicked in any Field/Row, an adjustable text box would appear over that field (adjustable by a typical 'drag to resize' spot in the lower right corner). The user could then enter text in this box just like it were a word or notepad doc; and it had 'Done' and 'Cancel' buttons at the bottom, as well. If the user entered multiple lines of text/info, once done, the field would increase in height to 3 or 4 rows, to show some (or all) of the newly entered info.
This is what I would like to do in my Excel database...or at least some reasonable facsimile.
Is this possible...???...I would be very grateful for any info or ideas.
thanx,
mark4man
