Subject:Possible to disable Autoshapes in Word 2002? From:"Kane, Beth" <Beth -dot- Kane -at- ncslearn -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 15 Nov 2002 12:29:24 -0600
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,
