If you want a real 'experience' g, use a Gallery choice that has a
gradient background and ungroup the individual letters -- you'll get
hundreds of vertical lines, one for each color in the gradient.

Hi Cindy,

Ahhh, I thought I was missing a step (the paste as picture) before
using the disassemble choice.

One final step would be to use Draw=Ungroup after the
disassembly to be able to use the letters individually
(depending on the Gallery choice, that may be more than one
level of ungrouping).

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)
