All of this having been said, I would personally opt for the less elegant method of creating an empty frame over the image + caption and then text flow around that frame. Similarly, even when you have some irregularly shaped collection of objects to text flow around, it is often a much quicker task to create two or more empty frames to accomplish what you need. Greg
