      Thanks Maarten,
that is exactly what I hoped to find out. So simple when you know how it is
done!
Thanks again.

The solution is simple, but hard to find...
-Select your textbox with the _text_ tool, (so, there's a cursor
blinking somewhere in the box), then

find the small rectangle/handle at the lower right corner and drag it.

Now the frame resizes, but the text doesn't. It floats!
It only took me a year to find it out.
Hope this helps,
Maarten
