Very similar response to Brazzell, however, simply double click at the bottom of your page and hit Ctrl (Control) and Enter....this creates a page break and will create a new page for you. Open the other document (which contains the text boxes), hit Ctrl + A (Select All), copy the area by hitting Ctrl + C (Copy) and then hit Ctrl + V (Paste) into the new page, follow this process to insert any further pages and text boxes.



Now for the next question....

When you insert a text box a canvas will appear that reads "Create your Drawing Here", you will also notice an icon shaped like a cross has replaced your little arrow...use this to draw your text box, don't worry about shape and size for now, anything will do as you can change the size later. Once created move the text box, simply select once of the four sides and drag it outside of the drawing canvas. You will notice that the canvas has dissapeared but screwed everything else up, don't worry, it's still there and causing problems. Select the area where it used to be and you will notice that it re-appears again, hit delete and 'whalla', you've kept your new text box and the canvas has gone( Unfortunatley I'm unsure of how to remove this drawing canvas so this process will have to be follwoed everytime, unless you just copy and paste the text box you have just created)

Hope this helps.

Doom and Brazzel, thanks for your replies, which I have considered the last few months. I've decided to try Brazzel's suggestion and use Microsoft Publisher. He (or she) is right! Publisher indeed is the tool I was looking for and I'm currently doing this newsletter in Publisher, much to my and everyone else's satisfaction. Thank the both of you for your replies!
