I want to remove the border line from text boxes in Word. I have tried MS's
recommendation of highlighting the box, going to Format, and clicking on None
in Borders. Any ideas?

For text boxes, the border is a "line," removed by choosing No Line on the
Colors and Lines tab of the Format Text Box dialog.
