Edit an embedded object without its source program

Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003

If an embedded object's source program is unavailable, you can convert it to a Microsoft Office drawing object to edit. After you convert an embedded object to an Office drawing object, it is no longer connected to the original program.

  1. Select the embedded object you want to convert to an Office drawing object and edit.
  2. On the Drawing toolbar, click Draw, and then click Ungroup.
  3. In the alert message that appears, click Yes.
  4. On the Drawing toolbar, click Draw, and then click Group.

Note  You cannot ungroup a bitmap.
