Where picture or textbox anchor went in word 2007 ?

[Ghyslain]

I use to be able to go to the Tools Options View and select view anchor,
picture place holder or something like that to see where is the anchor of the
textbox or picture is. That way I was able to move the anchor to the right
sentence and the Move with text was applying to that anchor newly moved. Now
I cannot see where is that check box. If somebody can help me on that.

Have you tried Office Button | Word Options | Display?

Yes I've tryed it and I've tryed to check and uncheck all the options
which could have an effect on the appearance of the anchor and nothing is
the same as my old Tools/Options/View Tab/show object anchor

If you check the box for "Object anchors," you should see the anchor when
you click on a wrapped object.

Hi Suzanne.

I went back to the word options and I don't have any boxe to check that has
the word anchor aside of it. I went in advanced options, the Show document
content and the Display section, they don't have that box to check or uncheck.

If you were on the Advanced tab, you were in the wrong place. I specifically
said Word Options | Display (not Advanced). It's in the center section,
"Always show these formatting marks on the screen," and one of them is
"Object anchors," with the anchor beside it.
