Subject:RE: May I have some help with text boxes, please. From:"West, Michael" <Michael -dot- West -at- gsjbw -dot- com> To:"rbg009" <rbg009 -at- cox -dot- net>, <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Mon, 24 Apr 2006 08:32:25 +1000
If you right-click your text box and choose Format Text Box, then click
the Text Box tab, you'll see an option to make the box fit the text or
to wrap the text inside the box.
There's also an option to set the default format for a text box -- but
I'll leave that for you to find.
Fish, eat, day.
