I guess there might be two other options. One is to prepare two templates,
one for portrait and the other for landscape, if you know in advance which
orientation a particular document should use. The other is a macro in the
template to change the orientation and also resize the frame.

Thanks for the confirmation.
Framing the text doesn't really solve the problem as this particular
template needs to be rotatable between Portrait and Landscape - which
of course varies the amount of white space availible for the lines to
spread into. Framing the text locks the amount of flow space I have
Any other options?

I can reproduce the problem, though I don't know why it happens. I
can also confim that it doesn't occur in the main text. This is in
Word 2003; I haven't had a chance to test in 2007.
To work around it, you can select the three lines of text and click
the Frame button on the Forms toolbar. Drag the right edge of the
frame so it abuts the logo. Then right-click the edge of the frame,
choose Borders & Shading, and select None. Right-click again, choose
Format Frame, and set its wrapping to None.
If the reason you chose Tight wrapping for the logo was to have the
text conform to the shape of the image, you'll lose that, since the
frame can only be a rectangle. The effect will be the same as if you
chose Square wrapping.

I have an interesting problem with text wrapping in a document
header.
In my header I have an image (our logo) in the top right of the
page. On the left I have 3 lines of text. Document Title, Path and
Date. The image has been inserted with the cursor at the end of the
second line.
Text wrapping properties for the image are set as tight. Poistion
and size are set specifically.
However, tf the text - most commonly the file path - extends up to
the image, it disappears behind it, rather than wrapping.
Even more amusingly, if the image is dragged down to the main
document area, then the text wraps around the image. The image is
still definately in the header.
Any suggestions?
