I also know that it isn't the optimal solution. - Maybe I the the time I'm gonna make a documentional file for some broadcasts I'll try the use of tables instead to see if this is easier and will give the same or a better stylish effect.:-) Cheers, Erik Richard Brian Ferguson wrote: > Yes, Erik meant using Column and Section tools. > > Perhaps not ideal but quite simple.
