I have a form control text box with a fixed width that expands downward to accommodate however much text is entered in the box and the text is set to wrap.

My problem is that if a carriage return is used anyplace in the body of the text (like to start a new paragraph), then the last line of text does not display in the print preview and is omitted from the printed document unless there is a carriage return after the last line of text. If no carriage returns are used in the body, then the text box prints properly without adding a return at the end of the last line. I've tried increasing the bottom margin, but that has no effect.

The text box is part of a form that other people will be using and I can't depend on all of them knowing and remembering to add a return at the end of the last line.

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
