text boxes 1

[ausputergeek]

In the templates, the text boxes are connected someway, text wraps from one to the next. How do I get additional boxes to connect?

Ausputergeek,

What you do is this.

1. Make sure the text box connector toolbar is showing
2. Get yourself another textbox
3. Click on the 'first' text box with text in overflow
4. Click on the "chain link" tool on the text box connector toolbar
5. The mouse pointer takes on a "pouring jug" pointer
6. Click on the 2nd text box and the text "pours" in
7. You'll see that little arrow at the bottom of the text boxes showing that there is a linked text box(s)

Stroppy,
Thanks! Now that I know, it seems so easy. This is my first time using Publisher and I find this forum MUCH more effective than the help button.

Thanks again.
