Thumbs up Answer: Selecting multiple text boxes

Yes, there is a way to select multiple text boxes in Microsoft Word without having to step through the whole document. Here's how you can do it:
  1. Click on the first text box that you want to select.
  2. Hold down the Shift key on your keyboard.
  3. Click on the last text box that you want to select.
  4. All the text boxes between the first and last one you clicked on should now be selected.

Once you have selected the text boxes, you can then toggle them to be either in front or behind the normal page text by following these steps:
  1. Right-click on one of the selected text boxes.
  2. Hover over the "Wrap Text" option.
  3. Click on either "Bring in Front of Text" or "Send Behind Text" depending on your preference.

This should apply the chosen option to all the selected text boxes at once. No need to run a macro or use the Find or Select All function.
