I beat my head against this one and could not come up with a solution that guaranteed success. It sounds like the big problem here is that there can be more than one problem/action per memo field(s). This may be a design flaw insofar that you may want to move problems, actions requested, and actions completed to child tables with some sort of description field that you could move to a combobox so....the user selects a problem and the editboxes are refreshed with that specific problem and actions.

I see no other consistent way of doing this.


>A medical form has 3 memo fields for the user to complete:
>Problem Actions Requested Actions Completed
>
>The user needs to type in details for the above but the problem is for each problem the data entered in Actions Requested and Actions Completed needs to be on the same line as in Problem. This is OK until the user scrolls down the Problem field and then tries to scroll down the other 2 fields, keeping the data entered in them properly aligned against each Problem entered.
