Eliminating a text box

I am in the middle of revising a short story. I inadvertently activated a text box. How do I get rid of the box?

If you have entered text in that box, and want to keep it, start by electing the text, copyinng it, then pasting it into the text body where you want it to be.


Then click once on the boundary of the box to select it, then press delete to deleat the box (and its contents) from the document.


Regards,

Barry
