Disallow print of a single graphic

[Janie]

I have a graphic on the first page of a document that is purely informational
for the user but should not print in the final document. I know I can turn
off printing graphic objects at Tools>Options, but that would disallow the
prinitng of ALL the drawn objects. Is there any way to create a property for
a single graphic (it's a text box) that sets its Print property to False
(Like in Excel where the Print property is atteched to each graphic
individually).

Thanks for any advice.

Hi Janie,

For one way of doing this, without the need for vba or resorting to turning off all graphics printing, check out my Word Date Calc
'tutorial', at:

or

In particular, look at the items titled 'Use a date test to provide pre-printing instructions' and 'Show or hide instructions &
graphics at print time'.
