Sorry - That's not an option in *any* version of Word. You can change the
font size by selecting the text as with any other text or by selecting just
the object, but the size of the text & the size of the object it is attached
to are independent settings.

OTOH, you can use WordArt in order to have "stretchable" text as well as
other options that can't be applied to regular text, such as Rotation.
