Help! In Word 2002, I cannot find a way to disable that totally obnoxious
feature, Autoshapes.

Used to be I could draw a rectangle anywhere/any way I wanted to. Now, when
I select the rectangle tool, I get this big-a** square saying CREATE YOUR
DRAWING HERE. Does anyone know how to disable this?

I have checked the online help, the MS knowledge base, and the Word-PC
archives, to no avail.

Thanks,
