A page of my teacher's gradebook project is a "seating chart". I want to have
rectangular boxes appear on a "blank" sheet for each student in the class
list. The objects should be movable with the mouse, and snap to a grid that
represents rows of desks. Eash Box will have a student's name on it.

I need to A) Turn off sizing handles and B) use objects that are pre-defined
(size), but will allow text to be written to them (student names). C) be free
floating on the sheet so they can be moved.

Any ideas?
