Greetings...

Looking for a quick solution... I have dynamically linked images and text, I want to place the images in absolute positions and have the dynamic text wrap around the images.

Please if anyone has a solution let me know... Also- I have already tried this with CSS and it just pushes the images below the text.

Thank you

By now I am sure you already found the solution. But if not,:
I am assuming you have the two objects (Dynamic text palceholder and dynamic image placeholder) in one table. So, its basic.
- Click on the image,
- In the property inspector, set 'Align' to left or right (i figure right for straight edge of text next to the image).
- set Vspace (eg 5)
- set Hspace (eg 10)
- get into live data view to see your placement.
THATS IT (well, at least for the basic bore).
I am thinking you probably are looking for the more complex issue of getting text around a cenred image.
For a while, i had lots of people telling me I had to either align left or right or else I had to use tables to place the image in the centre (which of course would be totally useless for putting an image inside a dynamic article for example).
I found this solution online:
www.mandarindesign.com/2005_02_01_archive.html that uses css and I think can be adapted to anything.
