I put together some mailing labels with a company logo, including overlapping text boxes.
In all, about seven different objects. Is there a way of making the whole thing a single
unit, to prevent accidental misalignment?

If this hangs together in normal use, I will be amazed. Word is a poor
application for combining tables (labels) with graphics
http://www.gmayor.com/graphics_on_labels.htm . Your best bet for such
complexity is to use Publisher to create your labels.

Hi tcebob,

If you select all of the objects, you can group them together via the drawing toolbar. That way, they can only be moved as a group
(unless you ungroup them first).

Cheers

Thanks, both of you. I did overlook the Group option, and it does what I want.
