According to WordPerfect Magazine, it can't be done.  The easiest work-
around is to set up newspaper columns and put the graphic box between
them.

I now what you want to do . . . something like this:

        _____
This is |   | a test.
This is |___| another test.

But you'll have to settle for:

        _____
This is |   | This is
a test. |___| another test.

The only other possibility I can think of is to set "Wrap text around
box" to no and tab across it.

PS.  If you have any other questions about WP, I'm an expert :)
