Problem Converting Textbox to Frame
I have a figure that I copied from one Word Document and Pasted into another.
I made the text wrapping square. I added a caption to the pasted picture and converted the textbox from the caption to a frame. When I did this, my frame added other text from the Word document into my frame as well. In other words the textbox converted to a frame but the frame had more than just the caption in it. Thanks for your help, Sarena |

Problem Converting Textbox to Frame
A frame is formatting applied to one or more paragraphs within the body of
the document, unlike a textbox which is a distinct text element. If your frame has stuff in it you don't want, remove it. "Sarena" wrote in message ...

Problem Converting Textbox to Frame
If the Caption style is set to "Automatically update" (in the Modify
Style dialog box) it is possible that the frame formatting as been added to the style. Clear the "Automatically update" setting (see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...formatted.htm). Then remove the frame formatting from the style: In the Modify Style dialog box (see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...fyAStyle.html), click Format, Frame. Click Remove Frame. Click OK. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Sarena" wrote in message ... I have a figure that I copied from one Word Document and Pasted into another. I made the text wrapping square.
