Text box "dissapears" and does not print

[Krystin]

I'm working with a document with pictures.
Unfortunately I did not create the original document, so I don't know how
the text box was set up.
I know a text box exists in the document, but after resizing pictures and
moving them around the text box disappeared.
When I print the document the text box is not there (doesn't print).
The only way I've been able to see the text box after making the necessary
changes to the pictures is to go into the "Reading Layout."
I like to operate primarily in the "Print Layout," but when I am in this
layout I cannot see the text box at all.
I am using Word 03.
I've changed the layout of the pictures to "Behind Text" but I still cannot
view the text box.
Help!
