SOS: InDesign CS4 - Turn off text wrap?

[laarree]

Try this. With no object selected in your document, open up the Text Wrap panel. Click on the icon on the top far left, which represents "no text wrap". Close the panel. From now on, when you create a new object (text frame, etc.), it will have no text wrap. If you want text wrap on all objects, select one of the text wrap varieties in the Text Wrap panel with no objects selected.

Let me know if this is clear and if this works.
