Well, depending on the size of the image relative to the text, you might try something like: <table> <tr><td rowspan=4><IMG SRC="whatever"> <tr><td><td rowspan=3 valign=top>the caption <tr><td><td><td> <tr><td><td><td> </table> This is off the top of my head -- please excuse the hairs ;) -Walter # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # Walter Ian Kaye: (602) 942-6390 FoxPro/Excel Programmer; Guitarist # # Correspond to: boo@primenet.com, boodlums@genie.com # # BinHex files: boo@primenet.com WWW: http://www.primenet.com/~boo/ # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #
