After grouping & ungrouping a chart, I can no longer format it?

[Pro_D Mike]

I'm sending a new format for a report for review. I wanted to show a chart in
two forms, one with the data chart and one without. I grouped the chart with
the text boxes containing header and other information, and copied the group.
Now I cannot format either chart, even after undoing the copy and the
grouping. Help?

Where you would normaly right click and get a group of options including
"chart options", I now have to select "edit chart object" to get the chart
selected, and "chart options" is then greyed out of the chart menu.
