Default text box lines

First of all, what are you using the text box for? Note that you don't need
a text box for text in Word (you just type it in the document). You also
don't need a text box to put the graphic in. The only case in which you need
a text box is when you want text on top of a graphic (actually, you can
still manage that by sending the graphic Behind Text).

In any case, to remove the text box border, double-click on it to open the
Format Text Box dialog. On the Colors and Lines tab, choose No Line.

I'm making my own template in word and want to have two lines of text and

a
clip art. WHEN ever i draw a text box, there is a line left around it. I

can
hide it with the "hide gridlines", but then the picture disapears.

is there a simple giude somewhere?

thanks
