In line with text(Word 2000)

[bhim73]

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help please. On Word 2000 when I do text box format and under the wrapping tab, there is a option of In line with text. Now I want to utilise this function but it is greyed out. How can I resolve this issue? I have installed everything that I can for Word 2000.
I am going round the bend here? Please help
Thanks
Dave

AFAIK, drawing objects always float. If you want in line with text, you can copy the textbox as a picture and then change the layout.

Hello XLhelp

The problem I have with Word 2000 is in one of the documents that I have created. I created the document in word 97 and had copied an excel spreadsheet in to a text box. Now it looks all fine on Word 97 but when I view the document in Word 2000, it looks all messed up. I.E the excel spreadsheet is a list of 15 tasks. On Word 97 you can see all of the tasks but when I view it in Word 2000 I can only see the first line. I have tried almost everything and I am going loopy now. Please help someone
