My designer sent me a word version of my letterhead so that I could type on
top of it. I believe what he did was take the image and insert it as a header
on a blank sheet. I cannot figure out how to type over the image with my own
text... If I insert a text box then I lose some needed functionality for the
form I am trying to create. As always, any help is much appreciated!

Use View Header to open the header pane (or just double-click there).
Select the image so it has a black border and little squares (sizing
handles) on the corners and edges. You should see the Picture toolbar -- if
not, select it from View Toolbars.

On the toolbar, click the Text Wrapping button, the one with the dog
picture, and select "Behind Text".

Double-click in the body of the document to close the header pane. Now you
should be able to type over the picture.

Jay,

You're a lifesaver! I knew it was simple but I was wracking my brain for
nearly an hour... Thanks again!
