Jezebel,
Thanks for responding...I thought it might be hard to visualize. Your idea
of a table would work fine. I am not sure how Autotext works, so I need to
read a little about that to see if it would do what I am after.

Thanks again for the idea

It's a little hard to visualize from your description; but as far as I
understand it, why not use a table? Border top and bottom, icon in column 1,
text in column 2. Once you've got it right, select the whole thing and
define as an autotext entry.

I am using Word 2002 on Win XP.

I am trying to figure out how to insert "notes" into a training document I
am working on. Ideally the note would be formatted such that in there
would
be a line across the page both above and below the note. Then between
those
lines, there would be a specific icon in the left margin. with the actual
text of the note aligned with the rest of the document's BodyText.

Ideally I could make one or more styles to apply to the text to make all
of
this happen....but I don't have a clue how :-)

I read a few other posts regarding creating 2 columns on only part of the
page and also about "margin text" using Frames or Textboxes.

If anyone can please help, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance!

Paul
