Steven,

In my experience, the only way to do what you want -- center text automatically vertically on a page -- is to put it in a table cell. The problem is that table cells don't flow from page to page, rendering them useless for formatting textual documents like newsletters and similar projects. I would support a request for enhancement (RFE) that would add the capability for vertical centering in frames.

2.Choose Insert - Frame.
3.In the Anchor area, select To page.
4.In the Size area, set the dimensions of the frame.

6.Click OK.

Followed the instructions, ended up with the text in a frame centred
vertically and horizontally on the page, just as expected.

OOo 2.0.0, Win XP

So what happened when you tried it?

Andy
