Paste metafile into drawing canvas

[Rob]

I can't get a rotated text copied from Power Point 97 to
be pasted special as a metafile picture in a Word 2002
drawing canvas. It gets pasted outside the canvas. Thanks
for any ideas.

Hi Rob,

drawing canvas. It gets pasted outside the canvas.

When you click on it, does it have black squares (handles)
around it, or white ones? If they're black, right-click,
choose the Format command and go to the Layout tab. Choose
a text wrap format (such as Square) and then you should be
able to drag it into the Drawing Canvas.
