Making text wrap

[obsean3]

O.K. everybody

I was just starting to feel good and comfortable in illustrator, and then something simple blows my confidence.

I'm trying to make my text wrap around an image I "placed" in my artwork.
I select the object, move it to the front, then go to object-text wrap, make wrap.
I get the option dialog box, but I can't check the preview box. I set my offset value, click o.k., and then nothing happens.

First off, why can't I check the preview box? Second, why doesn't the text wrap like I think it should?

Any help would be great.

by the way. I'm using CS2.

I guess I'll answer my own thread, just in case someone out there runs into the same problem.

What I was doing wrong, was that I didn't have the image and the text in the same group, and then the text has to be on top of the image. Works like a charm when you do it right
