Text inside autoshape

[Guest]

Is there a way to move the margins within an autoshape so that the text is actually in the shape? (example, make text box into circle, place text within it, and have margins of text be circular).

I have changed the shape, as well as the format, but I get a rectangle of text within a shape (tried circle and star).

Puhleeze help. It's for my son's book report, which is, of course, due tomorrow! AAAAH

Susan,

Try formatting the text with center alignment. Then you
can just hit the enter key when you get to the end of the
colored shape. You'll always start typing in the middle
vertically, so determining when to hit enter will take a
little guesswork but it should work ok.
