I am stuck to auto jump cursor from one text field to another, when the limit of text get reached. 

Expected case is that, when user enters the comment. Cursor should auto move to next line text box.

    you will need add-in for this, add the control add-in to the field and implement something like keyboard stroke event, if length hit max character then send enter key.

    I am not sure if this  possible as never tried it.

    It would be quite difficult and time consuming to implement the keyboard stroke.

    One easy way you could do is to provide an input page / dialog.

    The user click a button, an input page will show up, user type in the long comment and press OK.

    NAV will automatically split it into multiple comment lines based on the length.
