why does my text box disappear every time I want to resize??

[Guest]

I have added text boxes to the right of my table. When I attempt to move or
resize them after I've filled them with text, they disappear. I have to hit
the undo button to get them back but can't resize or move them or the same
thing happens again. This did not used to happen with earlier versions of
Word.

Do you have problems with disappearing graphics also (text boxes are
graphics objects)? This then may be attributable to the graphics driver with
recent ATI display adapters and the Intel® 82915G/82910GL Express Chipset
Family causing particular problems.

In the case of the latter, the latest driver
http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scr...543/a08/win2k_xp1411.exe&agr=N&ProductID=1764
appears to fix the problem. DON'T TRY TO USE THIS DRIVER WITH ANY OTHER
CHIPSET/ADAPTER.

If you have the problem with a different display adapter and are sure you
are using the latest driver, then try reducing the display's hardware
acceleration.
