Hi

I want to link a piece of text to a textbox which I can then move around the
screen with an arrow attached between the text and the textbox.

Scenario
I have some text, I draw a textbox and arrow between the two. I go further
up in the document type some text and the textbox, arrow and text all become
disconnected and I have to mess about for ages reconnecting them.

If you can recommend an add-in for this if the functionality is not within
Word itself. Something similar to Visio (not a viso embedded doc as none of
the formatting is kept).

thanks

I also want the exact same functionality that captions provide except with
the additional formatting that text boxes provide.

Any help very much appreciated as I've struggled with this for YEARS!!!
