    You cannot use the crop tools on shapes. You might be able to get what you need using Merge Shapes (Subtract).

    I would explain what you need to do.

    In 2010 the commands are available but they are not on the ribbon. You will need to add them by customizing the ribbon and adding those commands to the ribbon from the command well.

    By "I would explain what you need to do." John meant that YOU should explain what you need to do.
