I am going nuts trying to figure out how a previous author managed to
get his MS Equations to vertically align with the bottom of the text

I use two text boxes inside the drawing canvas. As soon as I type
letters in either of the boxes the other box is filled with the same

I'm trying to divide a document into sections so that I can change the
header every few pages without having to signal a break in the text. I'm
running Word 2003.
I've got as far as working out how to create the new sections,

I have a rather complicated document, really a form, that is duplexed
and Legal sized. It has all of the space used up, now I need to add
another part without changing the 'size' of the doc. What I need is
