Be sure that the stacking order (in the Layers panel) has the first text box at the bottom, with the rest in proper sequence to put the last one at the top. This might be the reverse of where the text elements appear on the page. Select all the text boxes and go to the Type menu > Threaded Text > Create.

Thank you for your reply. After I go to type/threaded text/create, then
type...how would I convert those text boxes into object/envelope/make with
mesh while still retaining the threading?
