Yes ... "chaining of text boxes" seems to be the missing ingredient for
me.  I looked through the on-line help and I cannot find anything about
chaining text boxes.  How do I accomplish that?

May I suggest a search facility for the on-line help.

Is there more documentation than the on-line help?  Is documentation
available on a PDF doc?
