PPT 2007 text wrapping

[Guest]

How do I wrap text around a picture in powerpoint 2007? In word 2007 it is
easy you just right click on the picture and select text wrapping. Can't find
option in powerpoint,

Glenda,
As far as I know you cannot wrap text around a picture in PPT. Never has
been, and I am not a 100% sure but I think nothing has changed in that
respect in PPT 2007.
As a workaround you could consider to do it in Word and
copy/paste it into PowerPoint. Or even do it manually by using multiple text
boxes and placing them around the image.

To wrap text around an element on a PowerPoint slide, adjust the order, if
desired, so the text element is on top of the element to be wrapped around.
Then, starting at the top of the text box (assuming "top" vertical alignment
is set), force carryover line breaks (hold the shift key down while hitting
<Enter> to create a "soft return"), or hard returns as necessary. Not too
bad if the text block has "top" vertical alignment set, but craziness will
ensue if the vertical alignment is set to "middle".
