Re: Position Text Box in line with text

That's correct: A "Text Box" is a "Picture" and cannot be placed in the
text layer. Use a "Frame" if you want text in a box in the text layer.

A Word document is a three-layer sandwich: the text is the middle layer.
There are two graphics layers, one behind the text and one in front of it.
Text Boxes live in one or other of those.

Look up "Frames" in the Help. The easiest way to create one is often to
convert a Text Box into a frame :-)

paste special as word object...
