Print check in word xp "Mosaddeq Aziz" <mosaddeq[ at ]ymail.com> 12/24/2008 6:02:57 PM Hi, I need to print check in word xp. I need to have my text fixed at certain positions no matter if i change some other text. How can i achieve that? Another thing is say i want my first line to start from 3 inches from the left and finish it before 2 inches from the right. My second line will start from 0.5 inches from left and finishes 1.0 inches before right. Is that possible? B/Rgds, Mosaddeq

Re: Print check in word xp "Mosaddeq Aziz" <mosaddeq[ at ]ymail.com> 12/25/2008 8:07:01 AM Thanks for the reply. Problem with text is to place in the exact position. I need to place them in exact position so the text doesn't interfere with other text. is it possible to set the text box in the exact position by giving the co-ordinates?

Re: Print check in word xp "Terry Farrell" <terryfarrell[ at ]msn.com> 12/25/2008 9:53:59 AM If you insert a Text Box, right-click on its edge and select properties, you have a whole range of options for positioning the box including one for locking it in place. Graham's alternative of creating a table with sufficient rows and columns to provide the necessary cells over the areas you need to input the data will work equally as well. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "Mosaddeq Aziz" <mosaddeq[ at ]ymail.com> wrote in message news:Oug2sfmZJHA.5084[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl...
