<div>Hi Janet --</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Try a "Geemail", which can be found in the Supplies or
Widgits flap. It gives you a scrolling text galley that can be edited.
You can drop morphs into the Geemail and they will anchor themselves
to a nearby line. You can make the Geemail wider than the text and use
the extra width for pictures, sidebars, etc. Because of the anchoring,
these pictures will also travel with the text even if you insert more
stuff earlier. I have done quite elaborate documents with this.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Or, there are "books" which act a little like Hypercard
stacks. A textmorph can be dropped here, and will flow into columns
and across pages. Use the balloon help on the buttons at the top of
the book to find the one that will give you a bigger menu on top. Look
at the menu items, etc.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Let me know if you have difficulty.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>P.S. You can easily use the kids etoys stuff to make bar graphs,
etc....</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
