TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Gerald Bourguignon wondered: <<I've been trying to figure out how to
insert a text frame with a border and have the border one color and
the inside of the text frame a different color (e.g., a 2 pt black
border with the inside of the text frame yellow).>>
Not a Frame user, but until you get an authoritative Frame-specific
answer, here's something you can try that works well in a few other
programs and thus might work in Frame: insert a 1-cell table, then
edit the border and fill properties of the cell.
