Can't wrap text on an image in Word!

Question

I am trying to make my images top to bottom so that I can move them into text boxes but the option of wrapping text isn't available at all, as you can see in the screenshot provided. No idea what is wrong or why I can't!

Hi,

Looking at your screenshot it does not look as if you have a picture selected. Did you just paste it?

Once it is in the document, select it and use the Picture Tools tab.

Text in text boxes cannot be wrapped around objects in text boxes. If you meant that you wanted to put the picture (alone) in a text box in order to wrap text around it; this is unnecessary because you can set text wrapping on the picture itself. When your picture is selected, click on the Picture Tools tab to see the wrapping options under Wrap Text in the Arrange group.

With multiple images that are floating in the same layer, you can group the images so that they can be manipulated together.
