Default ungroup word art in MSWord 2003

Hi ?B?c3QgcGV0ZXJzIGdpcmxzIHNjaG9vbA==?=,

How do you ungroup Word Art in msword 2003 This option does not appear to be
available

I think I know what you're talking about... See if this gives you what you're
missing:

From Tools/Customize/Commands, Drawing category, pull "Disassemble picture" out
and drag it to the Drawing toolbar.

COPY the WordArt.
Reposition the cursor.
Edit/Paste Special. Choose "Picture (Windows metafile)" from the list.
With this selected, click "Disassemble picture".

That should break the WordArt up into separate objects (letters)
