I was afraid that would be the answer. I had already done some spacing of
text in each of those boxes so that relevant data would be grouped together.
I am afraid that I will have to redo that work, if I make them 1 big text box
and then link them. Oh, well, that's a decision I will have to make.

Do you mean you want the excess text in box 1 to auto flow to text box 2 and
then to three?

If that's the case, the boxes beyond 1 need to be empty to "link" them. Not
a big problem. Lengthen box 1 down to your toe nails, cut and paste from box
2 to 1 and from box 3 to 1.

Next activate box 1, click on the chain link in the tool bar and move the
mouse arrow over box 2. The mouse arrow changes into a tipping teapot, click
the mouse. Now activate box 2, click the chain link, move to box 3, click.

Now go to box 1, move the bottom the text box back up on to the work area
and the contents will auto flow into the linked boxes.

Using Publisher 2002, I have multiple text boxes on separate pages. I

want
to link them, so that I can use the "Continued" messages, but they already
have data in them. Is there a way to link them, without having to start

over
with empty text boxes?
