If i understand you correctly you want to use a text area instead of a textbox to enter the comments ??

If so change this:

<input type="text" name="comments" maxlength="60" value="<% = rsGuestbook("Comments") %>">

Into this:

<textarea rows="4" name="comments" cols="40"><% = rsGuestbook("Comments") %></textarea>

Hope this helps you
