Hi =?Utf-8?B?VG9tZw==?=,
I would like to hide an object from printing in Word. How would I go about
doing this?
What kind of object, and in which version of Word? Does the document contain
more than one object of this type?

I'm using Word 2003. I can insert an object/picture and hide it as long as I
use align with text. The problem I have is that I want the object/graphic to
either be in front or behind the text. Is there a way of doing what I want?

In the previous method I described, the graphic will not be visible on screen
when brigthness is set to 100%. If you want to see it onscreen but still not
print it, proceed as follows:

Insert a text box into your doc at position where the picture is to appear
Insert a picture into your text box
Select the picture, Format / Font, Hidden
Select the text box, Format Text Box / Layout / Behind Text
Format Text Box / Colors and Lines / Line, Color, No Line
Tools / Options /View / Formatting Marks, Hidden Text controls whether the
image is visible onscreen.
Tools / Options /Print / Include with document, Hidden Text controls whether
the image prints
