Right click on the picture and change its format so that the layout allows
text to go on the sides rather than just at the top and bottom.

Likewise with text boxes. You do not want to put your picture in a text box.
I'm not even sure if that is possible. Word treats text boxes as drawing
objects and they have their own layout.

I routinely use both text boxes and graphics in headers and can tell you
that doing so is not a problem in the way you are describing. You might want
to look at the Letterhead Textboxes and Styles tutorial
http://addbalance.com/word/download....StylesTutorial.

Take a look at: How to set up letterhead or some other document where you
want one header on the first page and a different header on other pages.
http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives step-by-step
instructions. (It also has the following links)

Some other pages to look at:

When I try and insert a text box to avoid this picture, I get a large box
with a "create your drawing here"insert. I inserted this picture
(absolute)
when outside of the header screen, but the header text still runs under
it.

I'm working on a header, and have inserted a text box and pixture (even
tried
it with just a picture) on the right hand side of the header. I have
formatted it so that text is wrapped around it, but when I type in the
header
the text runs beneath the picture and doesn't wrap. Can you do this in a
header? Any suggestions?
