Move object with text - change default
Francosayitlikeitis 12/28/2008 8:23:00 PM
It is annoying not to mention time consuming to have to keep accessing Format
Auto-shape - Layout - Advanced, to de-select the 'Move object with text'
check box.
This becomes necessary every time objects are grouped.
All the best

It is not too difficult to create a macro to group selected shapes and
de-select the check box in one operation e.g.

Sub GroupAndLock()
With Selection.ShapeRange
On Error Resume Next
.Group.Select
.RelativeHorizontalPosition = _
wdRelativeHorizontalPositionColumn
.RelativeVerticalPosition = _
wdRelativeVerticalPositionPage
End With
End Sub
