Exceeding Maximum Form Size

I have a form that needs to exceed the maximum set size by microsoft (my information goes over 1 1/2 pages). Currently I can only fit about 3/4 of what I need on the form and don't know how to make the form any bigger than what it is. The values set are : Height=11520 Width=15360 and no matter what I do I cant change these to make it any bigger (it will only show the form the same size as the screen). What I would like to do is have all my information going down the page, rather than sitting side by side (column like) which is what I think I will have to do unless someone helps!

BTW - I have already got small fonts and sizes and can't make them any smaller to fit on the one page.

Thanks.

Just to make it easier for the user to save them from switching between windows. (If you know of a better way to do this feel free to make suggestions).
I need something really simple so when the user enters the required information they press the submit button and the information is appended to a .xls or .csv file (which inturn is loaded into an inhouse application so it must be csv format). If I can put all this information on a form and subform (of sorts) and still "export" the information to the same csv file then I would be happy to (just point me in the direction of a good tutorial cause I am a newby!)
