Unfortunately no. Both Text boxes and Frames are anchored to a paragraph. As
long as that paragraph stays on that page, the Text Box or Frame can be
positioned exactly wrt the page. However, if you edit the page text
sufficiently so that the anchor paragraph moves to the page before or after,
the Text Box will follow it (although it stays in the same relative position
wrt the page.

Are you trying to add side notes or something?

Hello, this is my first time using this forum.

I've read several posts on locking text boxes, but my question is unique.
I
want to lock the position of the text box (so I don't accidentally move it
later), but I still want to be able to type in it. The box is along the
RHS
of my page, and I'd prefer not to Protect the document.

Is there any way to do this? Perhaps I could scrap the text box and use a
separate column? But the text in the new column is separate from the body,
so
it can't be like an ordinary 2-column page.

Any help is greatly appreciated...
