Hello,
OK, confession time...
Fresh out of college, I once constructed a resume in MS Word entirely out of text
boxes. </shudder at memory>.
Hardly an expert, and long before my knowledge of styles, tables, and other
workarounds, my rationale was that I wanted more control over how the text appeared
on the page and I couldn't get it formatted manually the way I wanted it.
Hmmmmm....wonder what that one says about TW.....<g, d, & r>
Have a great day,
Laura
