Where's the arrow for selecting multiple objects by drawing a box

[JeanneB]

In Office 2003, on the Drawing toolbar there was an arrow icon that could be
used to select multiple objects by drawing a box around them. This was a very
easy way to group a large nubmer of small objects. How can I do that now? I
surely don't want to have to select each object individually - it's too easy
to miss one, which causes a problem when I group the objects and try to move
them as a group. The missing object (shape) get left behind. From the online
help, I gather that this arrow icon is still present in Publisher 2007, but
where is it in Word 2007 and Exccel 2007?
Thanks much.

In Word 2007, click on the Home tab, look at the right end of the Ribbon
for the Editing group, and click on Select | Select Objects.

In Excel 2007, click on the Home tab, look at the right end of the
Ribbon for the Editing group, and click on Find & Select | Select Objects.

....and if you right-click the select object and choose Add to Quick Access
Toolbar, then you won't have to go "Home" each time you need it.
