Group objects in Office

This is one that I have encountered myself - it was a real pain until I discovered a method to get round the issue!!!

Try doing the following (don't ask me WHY it works, it just does

)

Right-click the .pdf image and choose:

(2003) Format Image > Layout (tab) > Advanced > Text Wrapping (tab) > Top and Bottom

(2007) Text Wrapping > Top and Bottom

Now, try clicking OFF the image, clicking on it again (to select) and then Ctrl+Click on the other object - it should allow you to select the two for grouping now - though it will probably lose the Text Wrapping format, so if there is a particular one that you want, you should now be able to apply it to your new grouped object!!

I Performed the above six steps, but it wont work. I also tried it with a jpeg... It wont work...

Any other suggestions?

OK - could you post a file with some of the offending images - text boxes in - I'll see if I can work out the problem!
