Use the frame that has been suggested.  Then under Format-> Paragraph 
select the Drop Cap tab to set the first character to what ever size you 
like.  It would be best to create a style for the paragraphs that you 
wish to use in this fashion and use it to set the style instead of the 
direct formatting as you can make changes to all paragraphs at one time 
if the need be.
