Text boxes and their contents are never visible in Normal view (or in
Outline view).
To make sure that text boxes display in Print Layout view: Check the
"Drawings" option on the View tab of ToolsOptions.
To make sure that text boxes print, check the "Drawing objects" option

I scanned a picture to a word doc, then added a text box. After
composing
text, had a heck of a time getting box to disappear. All this was
done on
print layout view. So I go to Normal View and text disappears
completely.
It's not a linked box I don't think. I didn't ask for a linked text
box for
any reason. I'm trying to make a flyer using a scanned flyer that
needed
redoing of text. So cropped text off and added mine as I said.
Help? Can't
get it to work right.
