text wrap options don't work

[Heidi]

Suddenly, I'm having 2 problems with text wrapping I never had before.
Situation 1: When I place an image overlapping a text box, the words do not
move out of the way. The image (or another text box, I've tried that too)
just sits there and blocks my view of the words in the first text box. I've
tried clicking on the various text wrap options, but when I choose any of
them (Square, Tight, Through, Top & Bottom, or None) it simply ignores me and
acts as if I have chosen None for everything. Situation 2: For some images
(perhaps the type of image makes a difference) only Top & Bottom text
wrapping works. No matter what option I choose, it will only wrap above and
below my image.

I have read all the help menus and I am sure that I'm doing it right.
Something must be corrupted in my program! How can I fix this???

Thanks,
Heidi

Do you have a border? Send it to the back.

Thank you thank you thank you! That fixed it! I've been struggling with
this for 2 days and it was so simple the whole time! I am very grateful...

I'm having the same problem - and am anxious to get the same results. How can
I send only the border to the back. (I did create a border around the
pictures I am using) When I try, it sends the whole picture to the back and I
continue to have the same problems.

Only the page border should go to the back. Tell us what you are experiencing, we
will try to help.

You may not have a page border. Bring the text box to the front and cover the
image.
