Hi,
  I am trying to wrap text around a graphic (text box, figure) in WordPerfect
and can't figure out how to make the text go completely around the graphic.

I don't want to make the graphic take up the entire width of the page by
using the "Full" selection from the horizontal positioning menu because some
are text boxes that I want a shaded background for and I don't want the 
shading to go all the way across the page.  

Finally, just including blank lines is not acceptable because that removes
one of the basic niceties of a word processor.  Being able to add and remove
sections of a document and letting the word processor take care of the pageing
etc.  The graphic will jump around from page to page and I will have to add
or delete more of those blank lines.

Thanks for any help
-Joe
