In powerpoint 2007, if you make a new slide and then change the layout to "Content with caption", you get two textboxes on the left side - "click to add title" and "click to add text". If I put "MyTitle" in the top one and "MyText" in the second one, and then go the "format" ribbon and try to group them, I cannot - it is grayed out. I read something about that you can't group "placeholder" text boxes, but don't they become real text boxes once I type text in them? Any hints on how to group these two?

Thanks,

Dave
