[hmm]

Thanks for the reply. Just a couple follow-up questions:

1. I assume that pasting it as "Enhance Metafile" will allow me to edit the
drawing object later. Is that correct?

2. What about tables? Is there a solution for tables?

For objects that don't support "In line with text," you can Edit | Cut

I have drawings and tables with captions in my Word 2000 document.
While
working, the captions and figures dance like Mexican jumping beans
all over
my document! I would like to know how to keep them together.

I had difficulty using Stefan Blom's suggestion (thread started
7/5/2006) of
applying the "in line with text" wrapping style to the figure, and
encapsuling it in a frame together with the caption , because; 1)
drawing
objects cannot have the "In line with text" wrapping style--the
option is
grayed out; and 2) tables behave so unpredictably, and I was unable
to put
one in a frame without drastic changes to the cell sizing.

Hoping someone has a suggestion; thanks.
