Grouping and Resizing

[KC]

I have a textbox grouped with a picture.

I'd like to resize the textbox without ungrouping it from the picture and
without having the picture resize with the group.

Is there any way this can be done?

KC,
In PowerPoint 2007 you can resize whithin the group without ungrouping. Not
so in PPT 2003 or earlier.

As Luc says there's no simple way. Can be done in vba using groupitems
(x).width and groupitems(x).height

For PPT 2003 or earlier, you can use the Shape Properties toolbar from
ProTools for PowerPoint available at
http://officeone.mvps.org/protools/protools.html. More information on Shape
Properties toolbar is at
http://officeone.mvps.org/protools/protools_shape_properties.html
