As with placement of any content on a web page, tables
are an excellent method of placing content.
You don't say specifically but rember textboxes are an
HTML form component and need to be placed within a form
boundary on your webpage.

What sort of Textbox - the textbox used in a form? Or the textbox created
with the FrontPage drawing tools?
As others have said, the first type is easiest positioned with a table. The
latter uses absolute positioning, so it is unlikely it is in the wrong
position - it only looks that way because the rest of the page has moved
around it. This type of text box should be avoided because they use VML
graphics, which can only be seen on Windows PCs with IE5.5 and later.

I am using the textbox from the drawing tools. I cannot seem to figure out
how to draw a table to be placed in the table already there.
I will keep trying, but now every time I add something to my Homepage I have
to mess around with my text boxes.

I need to create small boxes in corners of a cell which I cannot due, that
is why I used the text box. As well as I need to place text within a created
graphic. When I draw the text box on the graphic it appears correct in page
view but is not correct in web view. I then have to move the box up and to
the side for it to appear correctly on the website.
Any ideas???

When you use the drawing tools, on users of IE browser under Windows can see them. Can you provide a
URL to what you have done or trying to do?

That is one reason why text boxes should be avoided. Unless your entire
page is locked down with absolute positioning you will ALWAYS have problems
with text boxes.
Also, bear in mind that over 20% of web users will never see the text boxes,
since they do not use Internet Explorer. Those users will see a completely
messed up page.
To add a table inside an existing table (nesting), click in the cell you
need the table, then from the menu, Table->Insert Table
Choose the number of rows and columns required.
It often helps to plan the page, or an area within the page, on grid paper
and design your tables and nested tables there.
