Hi,

I rarely use word. Here is my question, I am creating a new document based
on a template I found online. I wanted to put a "Box" around the text on
each page, because it looks nice (the box is just a line that goes around the
border of the text on the page). I have seen this done on other documents do
you know how to format it so it does this automatically.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Go to Format Borders and Shading Page Border and select the type of
border you want. (If you have Word 2007, the Page Borders button is on the
Page Layout tab of the ribbon.)
