Hi spysmily1,

And it's not so much of me calling him an a**hole as it is him starting out
by being childish and calling me stupid. He started it------JK!

ok, Jezebel did.
That's just the way he is.
With all the help he has provided here before,
it is generously granted.

As to that da*ned f*ing box:
I have no problem to show it and hide it, manually.
With the box the
Tools, customize,
right click in the box,
uncheck, close.
Box has gone, here and now.

With no box the
sub dam*d
Tools, customize,
f*ing box appears,
right click the box,
uncheck the preceding grey square
nothing happens
close
end dam*d
box is still there

repeat dam*d
box has gone and hopefully will have vanished forever.

Otherwise, I don't know.

Have a nice day, nevertheless.

If nothing works, let it rest for a while.
After 20 or maybe more years of
struggling with Word and later Office,
my advice is, take a time out.

da*ned f*ing box,
driving everybody up the walls:

There is a "not" missing occasionally.

I need a time out, too.

Thx for replies and sry for any trouble caused. Bob Buckland helped alot when
he suggested that the mouse driver might be off when selecting the type a
question box and sure enough he was right. I wasn't even clicking near the
box when the option finally appeared.

Thx for your time and by all means your time out is well deserved, so go
ahead.
