The best way is to insert a 1 column 1row table into the document where you
want the text. Set the table so that it will not "grow" by choosing the
number of inches of the row as "Exactly", not "at Least" in the row tab of
the tables property dialog box.

Then insert a text field into the table, and limit it to an estimated number
of characters to be used in the field.

Good Luck.

I have a form where narrative needs to be included. I only want a specific
amount of space for the narrative and I want tbe text to wrap around.
Following the narrative are more check box questions etc. (on the same page).
When filling out the narrative, how can I keep the rest of the form from
moving down?
Perplexed!!
