Try using the drawing toolbar (right click in an unused toolbar area)
and select the drawing toolbar. On that Toolbar (which will normally
showup at the bottom on the page) select "Auto Shapes", then "Basic
Shapes". You will see the bracket as one of the choices both pointing
left and right. Select the one that you want and, as with any picture
item, you place and pull it to the size you and location that you
desire. You can re-shape it once it is on your document.
For completeness, there's one more way: Use the Equation Editor
(select Insert > Object > Microsoft Equation 3.0; if that choice isn't
in the list, you can go through the Office setup program to install
it).
Type the three lines of text, and cut them to the clipboard. Start the
Equation Editor. On the floating toolbar, click the button on the left
end of the bottom row that shows parentheses and brackets. The single
right brace is the second item in the sixth row. Click it, and then
paste the three lines of text into the little dashed box that contains
the cursor. The brace will automatically expand to fit the height of
the text. Click anywhere outside the equation box to return to the
document. If you need to edit the text later, double-click it to
restart the equation editor.
For those who are picky about the appearance of their documents, using
a regular brace character at a large point size -- say, 40 pt to
cover three lines of 12 pt text -- makes the brace much too heavy and
dark. The AutoShape brace is probably the best-looking of the three,
but getting it to position properly and stay there can be tricky.
(Hint: Hold down the Alt key while you drag the handles to get finer
control.) The Equation Editor's brace is actually a little too thin
for my taste, but you can't beat the automatic sizing and positioning.
