As Pam says, Word 2007 can see text in text boxes, but you can also still
use frames (which are backward-compatible); put the graphic and caption
together in a frame and they'll stick together.

This is more a software usability question than it is a developer
question...sorry for my naivety but I've been trying to figure out a
solution to this for the last 6 hours.

Document in Word 2007 with many images, tables and charts. At least a 1/3
of the figs/tbls are small and therefore need to "float" so that text can
be wrapped around them. Every fig/tbl needs a caption, a source, and some
may have additional information attached to them. It's a long document so
there is a TOC, but the caption is the only part that needs to make it to
the TOC. I would like the figs/tbls to be on the right adjacent with the
right margin. So...how do I get the caption and other associated
information to move with the fig/tbl?

Captions won't be read if I put them in text box. Every element within
the frame (figure, caption, source, and add. info) has a different format
style. The problem is that I need the frame to have a border box, but any
border assigned to the frame actually winds up on the frame AND each of
the individual elements in the frame, which isn't right and looks
ridiculous.

I'm no developer but I think I'm more Office savvy than most, and I'm
pretty resourceful as well...still I'm out of ideas. Can anyone please
help me so I can move on to actually finishing this very long document.
Please, please help me.
