I dont even know if I can describe this. I have a word document that when
viewed in print layout seperates the text boxes 1 per page. The first text
box is for say a persons name and below that another box for say age..
Another box below that is for comments by the way these boxes expand as
needed as more comments are added. And the last box is for reviewer and
signature etc... So basically 4 input boxes printing on 4 pages when it
should be 2.

Interesting is the doc prints fine in portrait but needs to be in landscape
and hence the formatting gets lost. I have tried to correct this using office
xp and 07. This happened mysteriosly on about 25 docs and somehow office word
anyway wasnt installed and word perfect was... Humm

TIA

Are you certain they're really textboxes and not table cells? I can create
something similar to the scenario you describe by doing the following to a
table:

1. Setting the row height to At Least or Exactly to a value that's greater
than 50% of the page's available printing height (e.g., 5" does it here with
normal margins)

2. Turning off Allow row to break across pages.

So... the first thing I would do would be to check those two settings (both
are available in the Table Properties dialog).
