Default Help formatting Pictures inside a Text Box in Word 2013

The title pretty much says it all. I am attempting to insert a picture inside a text box that includes text. My "text wrapping" and "position" options are grayed out so I cannot insert the picture with "tight" wrapping. The result is my text is getting split into a top and bottom section and my picture cannot be moved from the center of the the text box. I want the text to react to the picture as if it had tight wrapping. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unless I'm mistaken, you will not be able to accomplish what you wish in a text box. I would use a single-celled table, although there may be building block built in that also allows you to do what you are trying to do with the text wrapping.

Best,
