What version of Word? Have you tried anchoring the text box outside the
table? Do you have "Drawings" checked on the View tab of Tools | Options?

I am making a calendar and I am trying to insert a text box to span acorss
5
dates on the calendar. Each time I click on the text box to make it span
across the dates, it disappers. I have tried to put the text box infront
of
the text but that does not work. It does not work if i put the text box
behind the text. The box always disappers. Any ideas?
