Can you not add a linked text box on a new page at the end of your document and
do your editing where needed? Or if that isn't possible, shorten a linked text
box and create a new text box above or below; adding the new page at the end.

Thanks Ed. I understand what you are saying about the text being in the
overflw area of box n. But in trying your solution, I do the Select to end
of story, cut, break the link and then the text from n+2 comes into the box
where n+1 was. Then when I paste back into that box, it says do I want to
use overflow and I say NO or else I'll just be back to where I started.

However the text that was in n+2 is now in the overflow. Do I need to
insert a new page for that text to get manually cut and paste from the
overflow to?"

I hope this is clear.
Thanks
