Web Tools
I've figured out how to change the default picture layout to be "In front of
text" but have been unable to do the same for Web Tools such as text boxes and option buttons. Any advise? I use Word 2002 SP3. -- Thanks, David |

Hi David,
While Word has some support for CSS2 to apply to documents, it doesn't fully support floating positioning of pictures when you use File=Save As Web Page Using the Web Layout view choice is pretty much along the lines of what you'll get when you save or use File=Web Page Preview. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/212270/en-us?FR=1 (also applies to later Word versions) I'm not entirely clear on the goal you're trying to achieve when you refer to being able to position the items from View=Toolbars=Web Tools When you use the items from that toolbar you're creating a web form region within your page. With the toolbar open, if you click on the 'Design mode' icon then select the inserted web text input box you can right click and choose 'Format control, and that will let you choose 'in front of text', but as you will notice that as soon as you do that the web tools toolbar pretty much goes blank as Word can no longer 'see' the control, to work with it. ============ "David" wrote in message news I've figured out how to change the default picture layout to be "In front of text" but have been unable to do the same for Web Tools such as text boxes and option buttons.

Web Tools
Thank you for the response Bob. I am trying to create a proposal for a web
page. It does not need to have any functionality. It just needs to "look like" the finished product. I have been changing the layout in the manner you suggested (right clicking) just to make the tools easier to move around. I was hoping there was a way to set "In front of text" as default so that I don't have to change it everytime I insert a new web tool. -- Thanks, David "Bob Buckland ?:-)" wrote: Hi David, While Word has some support for CSS2 to apply to documents, it doesn't fully support floating positioning of pictures when you use File=Save As Web Page Using the Web Layout view choice is pretty much along the lines of what you'll get when you save or use File=Web Page Preview. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/212270/en-us?FR=1 (also applies to later Word versions) I'm not entirely clear on the goal you're trying to achieve when you refer to being able to position the items from View=Toolbars=Web Tools When you use the items from that toolbar you're creating a web form region within your page.
