Hi, I rarely use word. Here is my question, I am creating a new document based on a template I found online. I wanted to put a "Box" around the text on each page, because it looks nice (the box is just a line that goes around the border of the text on the page). I have seen this done on other documents do you know how to format it so it does this automatically. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Go to Format > Borders and Shading > Page Border and select the type of border you want. (If you have Word 2007, the Page Borders button is on the Page Layout tab of the ribbon.) -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
