Hi all,
Every time I try to copy and past into a textbox already created by a
publisher template, another textbox is created by defalut to add the text
into it. I want to just add the text into the textbox already within the
template like you could with Publisher 2000.

Thanks,
Kelsey

Is your cursor inside the textbox when you paste? If you just paste Publisher will
create a new text box. If this isn't the answer create a new textbox, paste and
delete the original text box.

This is a known issue. You must place the cursor in the text box and then go
to Edit > Paste Special > Unformatted Text.
