Is there any background graphics capability?  Is there any built in
graphics capability like I've seen in fullwrite?  I'm a word person,
but I often need to stick simple graphics around text, or putting a 
grey background behind a table, and going to Pagemaker to do it is a pain.
I know, this is a "desktop publishing" function, but you mention that
Word 4.0 is almost a DTP program.  Thanks,
