WordArt?
You can create your heading in WordArt, the straight across would be best. Once you create the text, copy and paste special as Windows Metafile. Ungroup, draw a wavy line with the line tool, rotate/position your text on the line. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "steve" wrote in message ...

I was interested in your instructions to ungroup letters in Wordart and then
copyi and paste as Windows Metafile. This all worked great but when I try to move the letters individually, the letters themselves ungroup (i.e. border, fill, etc.). Is there a way to avoid the actual letter from becoming ungrouped? I can't seem to move any letter with having it "come apart". Thanks for your help with this. "Mary Sauer" wrote: WordArt?

Select the individual letters and group. When you ungroup the WordArt, the letters
will ungroup into the background and the foreground, you will have to regroup these individually. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "Surelyknot" wrote in message ...

I was doing this as a test, I found some of the "i's" and small "L's" do not have
rotating handles. Must be a bug...
