Border Art Button Missing in Dialog Box

[klm]

I have 200 high school students working in Publisher 2003 on Windows XP SP3.
SP3 was installed a few days ago. However, I don't know if this problem
existed before then. We are on a Novell Network, but the program was
installed locally from an image distribution.

On some of our computers, the Border Art button is missing in the Format
AutoShape and Format Text Box Dialog Boxes.

The button was originally there. I have no clue how students removed the
button.

Can someone help me put the button back so that border art is available again?

Can you tell me how the button was removed?

Thank you.

The BorderArt button is in the Lines, More Lines dialogue.

Ms. Sauer:

It is hard for me to dispute (partially) so distinguished an expert.
We are fortunate to have you.

Yes, I do see an additional border art button under the lines as you
described.
I will need to look at the school computers to verify.

However, Pub is open on my desktop at home (same install disk as the one
used at school) and there is indeed a gorgeous silver button that says Border
Art in my format text box and format autoshape dialog boxes.

Just a FYI. If my students can get to border art under lines. I am happy.

Thank you.

Of course it depends on the Auto Shape. If you draw a heart for example, the
BorderArt is not an option. BorderArt is available in the Format Text Box,
however if you add text to an auto shape the BorderArt is not an option.

Of course, you are so right. That is why you are the expert.

A million thanks.
