Side of page text (within margin)

[Guest]

I'm designing a information sheet with header/footer and two columns. I'd
like to have a permanent text are at the right upper edge (ie running down
the side-with text running top to bottom) - almost a side footer or header.
Can I do this? Any suggestions? I used a text box when I did this in Word
Perfect, but is there an easier way.... Thanks.

A header/footer can be anywhere on the page. Place the text box in the
header view and it will appear on all pages.

What I wanted was a header at the top, footer at bottom, and a permanent text
box down the right side (text facing down) - ie page text in two columns
would be next to this.

Attach the text box either to the header or the footer.

Place the cursor in the header area, and then insert a text box or
frame. This anchors the text box (frame) to the header and it will
show on all pages using that header. For details, see the "More
complex letterhead" section of the article at
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm.

Thanks you. I didn't understand about anchoring - works great!
