Is there any way to insert an equation to become as a part of the text?
In other terms, I want my equation (or my object) to become as a character
in my text box?
Thanks

Nope; that's just the way PowerPoint's designed. It won't let you wrap
text around any graphic, whether it's clip art, a photo, a graph, or
an equation (and it doesn't look like PowerPoint 2007 will be any
different in that regard). I have a tutorial on our web site about
using MathType with PowerPoint. Even if you're not using MathType
(i.e., you're using the Microsoft Equation Editor), it would probably
be useful for you to take a look at. One of the things I recommend is
to type the entire bullet -- bullet symbol, text, equation, and all --
in MathType (or Equation Editor). Here's the URL to the tutorial:
