Hi Bob -

Take a look at the document title bar - You'll most likely see
[Compatibility Mode] following the file name which means that you're working
in a .doc (earlier version) file. Those elements aren't supported by that
file type. If you Save As a .docx to create a new copy in the current format
you'll be able to use the features.
