Can adobe reader pro do expandable text fields or only Adobe LifeCycle?

I can make the text fields with the scroll bar but not auto expand.

I don't guess there's any kind of plugin you can get for Adobe reader pro to do this?

Thanks

    Currently this is a feature being considered by Adobe... but we need to upvote it in order for Adobe Softwear engeneers to understand how BASIC and important it is for Form users to have expaning fields!

    This is the form for the free Reader. That link is about the full version of Acrobat Pro. They are not considering something like this for the free Reader. For starters, Reader doesn't create pdf's...
