Text boxes are confined to a single page. If you have content in text in a
text box that need to continue onto another location create a second text
box & use the linking tool to link them together. The excess text in the
first will flow into the second.


BTW - I hope you're not under the impression that *all* text should be in a
text box. In a letter the content should just be typed & formatted directly
in the doc. Text boxes should be used on a limited basis for special
requirements.

A textbox can't span a page break. However you can insert another textbox on
page two, and link the two textboxes so the text flows from one to the next.
