Anchoring text boxes

[Tim]

If I have two text boxes, one of which is a comment on something said in the
other and the two are possibly linked by an arrow, and I wish to maintain
their respective locations while editing the whole note and moving things
around, is there any way to force these two text boxes to keep the same
positioning with respect to each other and maintain the arrow between them?

Thanks,

Tim

NO, unfortunately. {siiigh}
ON does not have any grouping/anchoring.

AFAICS this the biggest shortcoming in the current version and probably
# 1 on the hitlist of user requests.
But we won't see anything in this directions until the next version
(Office 14).
IMHO no chance to see a PowerToy- it's just too heavy :-( :-(

The only way to tie things together so that they stick to each other
AFAICS is making a screenshot and in inserting the image instead of the
original objects.
But this kills editing.

I found a workaround. I use OneNote 2007 (trial) and this is one of the
things I need. I have the link to a file and the comment, to glue them
together I put them in a 2x1 table.
