Is one possible clue "several tabs"? I'm wondering whether setting your own tab stops instead of using the defaults might give the Name field more room to grow without kicking the Age field along.

Thanks for a response. The "several tabs" are in fact the default tabs. I even tried changing their spacing. I have tried tables of single, double and other fields, with the
legacy field inside for the user to be able to tab through the page. I will try again with
a table and see what happens with a long entry.
Thanks again for the response
