You should be able to select all the text without the text box and
copy/paste. Another approach is to convert the text box to a frame (option on the Text Box tab of Format Text Box), then remove the frame (button in the Format Frame dialog). -- Suzanne S.

text box ???
Think we've found the problem. It's not a text box but text with a border and the border was going along with the copy/paste of text. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

In that case all you have to do is select the text and choose No Border. If
the border is not part of the style, Ctrl+Q would do it. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "L.S." wrote in message ... Think we've found the problem.
