Blocking a column from text flow
Well, besides what you've already tried (covering the column with a text
box), you can use linked text boxes; that is supported. But, unlike Publisher, the number of linked text boxes in Word documents is limited. Note that Word was never intended as a page layout application. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "G Henkel" wrote in message ... So Word can't even handle something so primitive? After countless iterations of the software and 20 years of development it still can't even properly flow text? Wow! Guido "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ... For this task, you'd better use Publisher (or some other page layout software). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "G Henkel" wrote in message ... I'm working on a document that has two columns. On one of the pages in the document I want to insert a masthead that is unrelated to the text that is being flown, so I want my text flow to skip this column. I tried simply covering the entire column with a text box but for some reason there is always a single line from my text flow at the bottom of that box. No resizing, no moving, or anything helped to get rid of this line. It will NEVER flow into the next column. Is there a way for me to cleanly exclude one column on a page from the text flow? Thank you, Guido |
