Dear Paula:

This question has more than one answer, as follows:

1) All of you need to understand that what you think of (in Microsoft office
parlance)as a "Text box" has 2 different counterparts in Oo.

        1.1     There is a frame. This is closest to a "text box" but
sometimes it is not the best approach for the user's true needs.

        1.2     There are rectangles, that will also accept text, but the
behaviour of each of these two is different, hence one needs to know the
differences to choose appropriately for a given situation. Each has their
place.

You forgot to include the OOo 'text box' proper, so there are three (at least :-) ) ways of setting this up, all different. Confusing for the novice, especially as they don't all appear or work the same in all OOo app's.

Oh, and the OP is unsubscribed, so probably isn't seeing any of this.
