object" at

In Word 97, choose "float over text" for the wrapping style.
In newer Word versions, choose something other than "inline with
text" for the wrapping style.

Incidentally, you can find these help topics yourself by pressing
the F1 key on your keyboard, or by clicking on Help at the top of
your Word window.
