I am trying to format text to appear to the side and below
a graphic.  I have tried text boxes and frames and can not
get either to wrap around the associated graphic.  Please
advise.  Thank you.

You can't place a graphic inside either a text box or a frame. You can only
wrap ordinary document text around a graphic.

For LODONELL

In the view toolbars customise drawings.  At the bottom of the list you will
see wrap edit points.  With this you can profile a shape arounf a graphic
and the text will wrap around the profile.  It need not simply be a box or
rectangle.  Great command.

PS change your email address witha no spam / remove spam in the titled.
Experienced people will know and remove.  Otherwise automated E mail
programs will pick up your address and you will be bombarded with spam.

I cannot figure how this command works.  The wrap points do seem
to change, but then when the focus shifts away from the editing
process, the drawing remains as it was.  What am I missing?

Never mind.  I figured out how it works.  This is an amazing tool!
