Most objects behave just like the textbox from the previous
page. Where are these objects? They are mostly on a special toolbar for Drawing.
1) Click on the drawing Icon. |
|
2) Or click View … Toolbars … Drawing

Now you will see an extra toolbar, typically on the bottom for drawing lines,
arrows, boxes, circles, WordArt and more.
3) A different way is to click on
Insert .. Picture .. AutoShapes, which
shows you another little taskbar just for AutoShapes. |
