I am working on a newsletter. When I set up the different sections and place
my images. If I have to go back and place a section in front of another one.
The images all become misaligned. I'll explain better. Say I have 6
different sections in the newsletter. I decide to add another section. I
already have my images inserted in the other 6. This new section I want to
add. I feel should be the lead story and need to place it at the top. When
I put the text in, at the top of the sections already there. The pictures in
the other 6 sections move. They don't stay in line with the text they belong
with. HELP PLEASE!!!!

Publisher does not work the same way as Word.

That said, the image has to be touching the text for the *inline* option to
become active. Are you using a template?

Mary,
Thank you for responding. I am using a template I created. Should I be
putting each section in its own text box? I tried that and placed the image
inside. When I move the text box, the image stays behind. Any suggestion?

Right-click the picture, format picture, layout tab, Object Position: inline.
Experiment with left, right and Move object with text.

Why are you not grouping your objects? If you create a text box with each
picture and group you can move the group anywhere.

Have you tried grouping the pictures with the text? Arrange | Group.
