    - Picture Fill Ok, here's the deal. I am making a pennant and need to fill it with a logo. However, I can fill the pennant shape, but I want the logo in it to start big and get smaller with the pennant. Any suggestions. If you know how to just make a picture go from bigger to smaller, that would work as well. Thanks! -- Cgrant Tag: set tabs? Tag: 169434

    - Text is square in oval shape, Publisher 2003 I put an oval shape on a page, filled it with text and the text was square. Bummer. I thought I would share my work around. Put an arc autoshape and work it into an almost oval. Then using the helpful autoshape boundaries adjust it til its only the left half of the oval. In the layout properties, wrap text right only. Copy and Paste the shape. Rotate it the new shape 180 degrees, in the layout properties, wrap text left only. Place the two shapes together to form the oval. Next, place a normal text box so that it just encompasses the oval. Fill it with some text. The arcs have to be in front of the text, and publisher can be a little touchy about getting the order right. Once the text is wrapping properly, group the whole thing. Save it to your scratch area and your done. -- Computing should be about insight, not numbers nor flash. Tag: set tabs? Tag: 169433

    - Images Inline like Word so they move with text Hi, I just started using Publisher and I'm trying to replicate something I can do easily in Word. I want to insert a picture within a numbered list, say after step 3. I don't want any text to the left or right of the image. However, if step 3 changes and the text gets longer, I want the picture to know to move itself down and still follow its place in line -- right after step 3. This is what I can't figure out how to do -- the picture just stays put and I have to move it manually. The Inline feature in the Format Object window doesn't seem to do quite the same thing as in Word. Hoping I'm missing something really simple. Thanks for any help. Tag: set tabs? Tag: 169396

    - Labels I am using Avery 5971 Labels. I don't want to set up a Mail merge - I want to be able to view all 30 labels so that I can make changes right on the label as I wish, rather than from a mail merge list. This used to be easy... the WHOLE page of 30 came up and I could type whatever I wanted into each label space provided. Now - it's like even if I wanted to make labels for canisters, I'd have to set them up in a mail merge list first, insert fields into the label and the merge... that's a lot more work than just typing each name onto the labels. Is there a way to view and manipulate all of the labels at once instead of doing it the way they now have it? Tag: set tabs? Tag: 169310

Have you tried a detect and repair? Is the ruler visible? If the ruler isn't
visible, then the tabs won't be visible. Right-click anywhere, click ruler.

The text box has to be active if you are to see the tabs. I'm sure you know
that.
