Hi Mom,
You can, as Suzanne hinted, use Wordart to get text in a circle. 1. Type your text in a blank document, and format it with the font and size you want to finish with and make a note of the font name and size. 2. Select the text you want to be 'circled' with your cursor. 3. Choose Insert=Picture=WordArt and select the 3rd item in the top row (the 'arc') 4. Your text should now appear in the 'WordArt' text editing box, but not in the font or size you wanted. Select the font name you want and the size that you noted from step 1. (Note the size may take some experimentation to 'hold' at a later point). 5. The WordArt toolbar should now be visible, with the Wordart item still selected choose the 'Wordart Shape' choice and select the circle. 6. With the Wordart item selected hold down the shift key and drag the bottom center sizing handle straight down until you get a circular 'donut' outline on the screen. When you release the mouse you should have your text in a circle. 7. To resize the circle, hold the shift key and drag the upper left sizing handle diagonally down & right to shrink the size of the circle. You can also select the item right click and choose 'Format Wordart' to change the 'fill color' and 'line color' (font edges) to get colors you want. You can use the Word Drawing Toolbar 'shadow' tool to add dimension to the circle with a shadow. =========== "boobysmom" wrote in message ...
