Can you wrap text around a picture contained in a text box? If so.

Have tried everything I can think of, but the choices that would permit it
are "greyed" out. How do I overcome this, or is it possible to do so?

You have to make the text flow around the textbox itself, not the picture
within it.

Not sure what you are trying to do here. If you must multipost, then at
least add more information to each successive post.

If both the picture and the text you want to wrap around the picture are
inside the same text box, then it will not be possible for you to wrap the
text around the picture.

If you only have a picture inside the text box, and if the text is outside
the text box, then it is unnecessary to use a text box at all; just insert
the picture and format it as floating by right-clicking on the picture and
left-clicking on Format Picture | Layout | Tight, and drag the picture to
where you want it on the page. Text on the page will flow around the picture.

If the picture is floating, and if the text is in a separate floating text
box, and if both the picture and text are formatted with Square or Tight
wrapping, then you'll be chasing one with the other for all eternity. Take
the text out of the floating text box and put it in the body of the document.

There are several other permutations of: 1) text inside/outside of a
floating/inline text box, 2) picture inside/outside of a floating/inline text
box, 3) picture with text inside/outside of a floating/inline text box, and
4) floating/inline picture in the main body and text in the main body.
You're going to have to tell us exactly what you're trying to do if you have
one of these other permutations.
