anchor text box to page?
I have created a template that has a text box on page 2. When I add
additional body text (body text is in columns) the text box gets pushed to page 3 and so on. Is there any way to make the text box stay on page 2 while the body text flows to subsequent pages? |

One way would be to create distinct document sections so that the
headers/footers are distinct. Then, insert the text box (with text wrapping enabled) into a header or footer, and drag it to the desired location. Text will flow past it, and it will stay in the desired location. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Please respond in the newsgroups so everyone can follow along. http://www.herbtyson.com "bakerbiz" wrote in message ...

No. A text box (and all graphics and other items in the drawing layer) must be on the same page as the paragraph in which it is anchored. There is no mechanism for anchoring to a particular page. If this is a feature you must have, use a page layout program such as Publisher. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |

No, Word doesn't allow you to anchor to the actual page; text boxes as well
as other floating objects are always anchored to text on the page. If possible, try to anchor the text box to a paragraph in the middle of the page (such a paragraph is less likely to move to another page when you are editing the document). For more on object anchors, see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/drwgrphcs/anchors.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "tiffy" wrote in message ...
