Hi Linky -

I'm not sure what you mean by "import text into a photo" - that simply isn't
something that can be done... At least not based on the manner in which
you've phrased it

If you can provide a more accurate description of what you're actually
trying to accomplish I'm sure there are some suggestions to be offered.

Hi Melissa:

You need to float the photo first, then you can put text boxes over the top
of it.

By "float" I mean Format>Picture>Layout and set to "Behind text".

Search in the Word Help for "Picture" and read all of the topics that appear
Come back with any further questions after you've read all of that

Hope this helps
