I have created a maintenance agreement in Word 2003 using text boxes that the
end user will fill in. When I print the agreement out with the customer's
information entered, it also prints lines around the text box. Can I get rid
of the lines around the text box when printing without messing up the rest of
the format?

Thanks for your help

Stephanie,

Why do you have lines around them to start with? Can you simply use
textboxes without lines?

If not, prior to print you could run a macro similar to this:

Sub ClearBorders()
Dim oILS As Shape
For Each oILS In ActiveDocument.Shapes
If oILS.Type = msoTextBox Then
oILS.Line.Visible = msoFalse
End If
Next
End Sub
