Default Grouping and Ungrouping Greyed out

Hi,

My Uncle (who has been using Publisher for years) has called me to ask why
he can't group or ungroup a picture and a text box in Publisher 2003. The
options appear to be greyed out when he goes to use them. Also, when he uses
the select objects button he can draw a box around the objects but the group
icon does not appear at the bottom right of the select objects box.

He's stuck without broadband right now which is why I am asking.

Thanks for any help, Becki.

Does the text box fill the entire page? Ask your Uncle if he has drawn a full
border on his document? If yes, tell him to send the border to the back.
