Any wrapped object must be anchored to a paragraph on the same page; if the
paragraph to which it is anchored moves to another page, it will go with it.
I would think that locking the anchor would exacerbate the problem.

Hi Steve-

The one thing I would definitely change - assuming you didn't mistype - is
to put a check in the box for Lock Anchor. I also prefer 'relative to
Margin'
instead of Page, but either should provide a comparable result. Word has
historically been quirky with regard to keeping graphic objects where they
belong when other than In Line with Text. That's why I prefer layout
programs... even Publisher does a better job.

Regards |:)

I want to absolutely fix the position of an inserted object on a

exactly
in the same position. But can't achieve this...

In Format Object / Layout / Advanced, text wrapping is Square, Left
only,
and Picture Position has Absolute position specified (both horizontal
and
vertical), with Page selected. All the Options are unchecked (Move
object
with text, Lock anchor and Allow overlap).

But the behaviour is that the object's anchor still moves with the text
as
more text is inserted above it. And the object stays put until the
anchor
flicks over to the next page, at which point the object flicks over the
page
too.

How do I keep the object exactly where I want it... same position and
same
page?
