Word XP Objects Don't Move like Word '97

[Philip S. O'Donnell]

I had Word '97 for the longest time but I just got Word XP last week.
The problem is I use alot of objects, tables, lines, text boxes, and I
notice that in Word XP the objects don't move when I'm editing the
text in the document. Say if I delete a paragraph above the objects,
in '97 the objects would all move up (staying in the same place
relative to the text around them). In 'Xp though they stay in the same
absolute place on the document.

This is really frustrating to change one line and have to reposition
all the objects in the document. Is there a option to make objects
work like '97?

Be warned, Philip. It could mostly be the tables. Click inside each and go
to Table-Properties and make sure wrap text is OFF. Make sure pictures are
*in line with text*. That should help with at least those objects.

Hope this helps!
