PASTE SPECIAL

[John Law]

I am pasting my excel spreadsheet into word with a link, using paste
special. I am using MS Office 2002 and I can't find FLOAT OVER TEXT box in
PASTE SPECIAL so that I can reposition anywhere on the word page. Can
somebody tell me where Microsoft have put it
used to be in previous versions and was very useful.

Unfortunately, that option has been removed from the Paste Special dialog.
However, Paste Special now defaults to (IIRC) Square wrapping, regardless of
your preference setting for inserted/pasted objects in Tools | Options |
Edit. If you want some other wrapping, click on the inserted object to get
the Format Picture dialog, then change the wrapping from the Text Wrapping
menu (dog icon).

Thanks for your help Suzanne.
