Drawing pointer in Word 2007
In earlier versions of Word, there was a pointer that could be selected to
enable selecting multiple drawing objects on a page while ignoring the text. Is it gone with 2007? Is there any similar tool/method? Thanks, Jim -- Jim Hull Technical Writer |

The Select Object command is found on the Home tab in the Editing group
under the Select drop down. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beth Melton Microsoft Office MVP https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/Melton What is a Microsoft MVP? http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/gp/mvpfaqs Guides for the Office 2007 Interface: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/tr...295841033.aspx "Jim" wrote in message ...

Drawing pointer in Word 2007
Wow, I've been in fits since upgrading to 2007, having thought I lost my
object looper. Thanks Beth!

Drawing pointer in Word 2007
You're welcome. :-)
It's definitely a command that isn't discoverable. During the beta I filed a bug on its 'absence' in the Ribbon. I felt a little silly when they pointed out where it was. g If you get stuck again, check out the "Guides for the Office 2007 Interface" page using the link in my signature. Along with interactive guide you can download Ribbon mapping workbooks that can provide you with the location of a command in the new version. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beth Melton Microsoft Office MVP https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/Melton What is a Microsoft MVP? http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/gp/mvpfaqs Guides for the Office 2007 Interface: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/tr...295841033.aspx "Jim" wrote in message ...
