MS Office Forum / Word / Graphics / December 2003Putting a text box in exactly the same place on a different page
Hi. I have to put the same text box in the same spot (half way up the page) on every page of a fairly long document, and I was wondering if there was a quicker way of doing this than pasting it and then fiddling around with the position. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks Carol Carol, You could use a text box anchored in the header of the document. This will result in a slightly faded look on screen, but if your finally product is for print this might work.

Otherwise, pasting and fiddling seems to be the only way (note the exact position of one text box on the Layout: Advanced tab of Format Text Box and replicate the settings for the other). -- Suzanne S.

I have dim memories of an application where if you held down the Ctrl key when you pasted it would put it in the same spot. Probably some ancient graphics application!

Hi Carol, One way of achieving this would be to set the position of one text box exactly where you want it, via Format|Text Box|Layout, then select each of the others in turn (or together) and press F4 to repeat the positioning. Alternatively, you could select the lot and position them all at once the same way. Cheers > Thank you - I had a feeling you'd say that, but I thought > I'd check.
