if you click on insert, then picture, then auto shapes in word, a box or
another heading with the different shapes will come up depending on which version of word you have. when you select the circle, click anywhere in the word document and move the cursor to make it big or small or any size you would like it to be. double click on the circle, and for the color fill, select black and the circle is completely black now. you can draw the circle around anything you want. does this make any kind of sense at all?

see if this helps any:
Apply the same height and width to different objects Select all objects (AutoShape (AutoShapes: A group of ready-made shapes that includes basic shapes, such as rectangles and circles, plus a variety of lines and connectors, block arrows, flowchart symbols, stars and banners, and callouts.), picture (pictu A file (such as a metafile) that you can ungroup and manipulate as two or more objects or a file that stays as a single object (such as bitmaps).), WordArt (WordArt: Text objects you create with ready-made effects to which you can apply additional formatting options.), or clip art (clip art: A single piece of ready-made art, often appearing as a bitmap or a combination of drawn shapes.)) that you want to have the same dimensions. On the Format menu, click Object, AutoShape, Picture, WordArt, or Clip Art. The Format menu item changes to reflect the types of objects you have selected. On the Size tab, click in the Height and Width boxes to type in the dimensions you want.

Well, you don't say what version of Word you have, but in Word 2003 and
earlier, go to Insert | Symbol, choose Arial Unicode MS as the font, and then select Enclosed Alphanumerics as the character subset. Insert characters by selecting and clicking Insert or by double-clicking. Note, however, that that is *not* how the trick was done in the document you reference, which uses AutoNumbering. In this case, the circles are in fact graphics; they can be selected only by using the Select Objects tool on the Drawing toolbar. -- Suzanne S.

The general problem you are dealing with is that the "object" (the circle) is
formatted to be "behind text" and therefore can't be easily selected to make changes. The circle objects are associated with a paragraph mark in each of the sets, probably the paragraph mark of the selected answer. If you select the applicable answer (a through e) and then select "normal" style, all the text will move out of the way of the cirlce and you can select the circle, then select format and change color, etc. If you then also format the "fill" to say "no fill" then the cirlce can be formatted to be on top of the text and you can always select it. If you don't change it to "no fill" then it will cover up the letter when you place it on top of the selected answer. Of course, after you do all this, you will have to reformat the answer that you changed to normal so it has a letter designated like before and then place the circle in the proper place.

Thanks a lot!
The last question. Normally when i draw a circle it is possible to select it just by clicking on it. How to make circle so that it is only possible to select it only by using "select objects tool" ?

As Sue has pointed out, this is achieved by applying Behind Text wrapping.

It's a homework question. (I saw this thread only after the discussion) No. "takedown" is asking how his/her teacher inserted the circles to indicate the correct answers of a multiple-choice quiz. "takedown" is not asking for his homework to be done - the answers are already indicated. He/she is simply asking how the teacher put in the circles. I use this method myself when distributing answers to a revision quiz to my students (electrical/electronics) Sue and Suzanne are, as usual, quite correct and, it must be said, helpful. Paddy |
