Drag and drop?

Sorted that bit now, thanks to all. Now in a total panic with other bits.

text boxes are b***ers phoenix good luck and try not to use too many of them in future. little devils. All a plot to get people to buy expensive DTP software..xxx

If you position the mouse over the edge of the box you should get a +symbol and if you click and hold you can move the box

Those things are dreadful! They never seem to move properly along with text inside and once there seem never to be deletable.

Is this for an interview, Phoenix? Hope so!

YES!

Was only told at 2.30 today to be at the Marriott Hotel in Bristol for 9 am tomorrow!

Have thrown together a powerpoint, could do with animating some of it so that the bullet points come in on the click, but can't for the life of me remember how to do it.

Might have another go tomorrow, if there's time. Need to be up at 5am shock

Must try to get to sleep, once I've worked out which suit I can still squeeze my cellulite into.

Dont worry about a flashy animation. They are more interested in content. Hope it goes well. Get them to like you and if poss, make em laugh.
