By "block," do you mean it keeps the margin width it had in the
original, and that left margin appears somewhere other than against
the left margin of the Word document?

But inserting text to the right of the cursor won't affect text to the
left of the cursor. The inserted text will be part of the paragraph
the cursor is in, so you can also type Enter and then insert your text
to become a new paragraph; but still it will conform to the Word
document's margins.

Does TEXTPAD have "text boxes" or "frames" or some such?

TEXTPAD 5.3 has, under the EDIT/INSERT menu, a PASTE AS BLOCK command

Does MS Word 2007 have a similar feature?
