You need to give us some more information, not least because there are at least
three things in Word that are called "text boxes" :-)

1. Which version of Word do you have

2. What toolbar did you use to create your form

3. More specifically, exactly which tool did you use to make the text box

4. Why wouldn't you make the text box larger, so that all the text is visible

5. If it turns out they'd be appropriate, how would you feel about using macros
to help solve the problem
