Text And Picture In Same Box - PP2007

[RAH]

I have a page in my presentation where I want a small picture in the
Content box, and describing text that wraps around the picture. When
I put text in the box with the picture, it runs behind the picture
(hidden) instead of wrapping around it.

PowerPoint doesn't have this kind of "wrap text around an object" option.
You can do it in Word and Copy | Paste Special into PPT, or you can use tabs
and soft returns (Shift+Enter) to position the text.

Thanks. Seems strange that a powerful program like PowerPoint 2007
can't wrap text around a picture. I will try the Word approach.

PPT doesn't do text wrapping. Some people report that they've been able to
create the wrapping text in Word, copy it into PPT.
