Default How do I select a text box that is formatted as Behind Text?

Once formatted as LayoutBehind Text, it becomes impossible to select. What
is the trick?

Default How do I select a text box that is formatted as Behind Text?

PFJ:

Open the Drawing toolbar, select the selection tool (the arrow cursor) and
click or drag to select the text box. Alternately, if you can insert
temporary empty paragraphs in the overlaying text, you should be able to
select the text box through the "blank" spots the empty paras create.
