Click on the Line tool and press Shift to constrain the line to the true
vertical or horizontal. To change orientation, use the Rotate or Flip command. You can also use Format AutoShape to rotate the line to a specific angle or use the green rotate handle to do it by eye. For an article that shows some examples of doing some of the above, see http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/CropMarks.htm -- Suzanne S.

Thanks Ann and Suzanne.
Suzanne, your answers are always right on target as usual. I've come to depend on you so much (not to diminish Ann's response). I've learned so much from all you MVPs over the years. I should have remembered the answer to this because I'm presently looking at a document that I created doing just the things you said, but these days, it seems that I'm having a lot of trouble with my memory. Thanks for bearing with me for something so simple. I had two heart attacks in a row 5 weeks ago; my heart stopped and I was denied oxygen for some time before they did an emergency open-heart surgery on me. A main artery ruptured and I lost 2½ pints of blood in my rib cage. My memory has been affected somewhat, but I'm gradually recovering. I guess that God wasn't quite ready for me, yet! I'm still here, but I sure wish I knew what He has in mind for me so I can get busy, because I'd like very much to be around for another Christmas (LOL). Anyway, Suzanne, thanks for always being there. You must have "some kind" of IQ! Bill Tampa, Florida |

BillyBob: I learn from Suzanne every day I'm in these newsgroups--I want ALL
her Word knowledge (NOW), but she refuses to give it to me. My health is not good either, but when I hear a story like yours it makes me very grateful that I'm as healthy as I am! ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com "billybob" wrote in message ...
