"Flexing" text field???

I am setting up a simple form using Acrobe 7 (Professional). Because several text fields are contained with existing sentences (i.e., Forecast current as of Month YR. Revised forecasts will be available... [where as Month YR are the variable text]) is there any way to have the text following the form field move with the flexing of the input (May vs September)? I don't want the the form to gapping holes when the user selects May because I have to allow for the width of September.

 
I'm looking for an answer to the same problem. Did you ever figure this out.

This may not be/do what you want, but -
Can you put all of the text and variables in the form field, so that the text will always start at the end of the variable value, whatever the length? I do this when constructing alerts, email subject/body and path/filenames.
