Text Wrapping Images

[Reitanos]

Word 2003 will not allow me to change Text Wrapping while recording
(grayed out), so I've been digging through help without much luck.

It appears that the WrapFormat property can be set for shapes, but not
inlineshapes. Can someone give some direction on this topic?

I would like to change the wrap properties of all images in the
document. I know the following is not correct, but it's what I WANT to
do:
activedocument.inlineshapes.WrapFormat.Type=wdWrapTopBottom

Any suggestions on working with text wrapping images? Thanks.

Inline shapes do not -- cannot -- have any text wrapping. If you want the
equivalent of TopBottom, you must put the shape in a paragraph by itself with no
text before or after it.

The horizontal position can be set by adjusting the alignment of the paragraph
(Left, Center, Right) or by setting a tab stop and inserting a tab character to
the left of the shape.

There are functions to convert an inline shape to a shape and vice versa.

Thanks for the reply Jay. Maybe I misstated what I was trying to do:
I want to change the text wrapping of images that I have inserted with
Insert/Picture (they are currently all tight), but the recorder will
not let me make the changes during a macro recording.
