Default How do I bracket several lines of text?

Create one you like and make an AutoText entry of it.

I often need a large brace over 3 or more lines of text. For
example, if I am attempting to demonstrate that three lines of a
recipe are also known as by a single term, I would like a brace to
the right encompassing the 3 lines of text, with a single term at
it's crest (center). This is simple in Word Perfect, but I can't
figure out how to do it in MS Word 3000.


Thanks Renee. It's a little clumsy to work with, but it gets the job
done. I will see if I can figure out to make macros for the
dimensions I use most often. Thanks again for the help.
