Why is not possible to use the align/distribute function (grayed out)
when working with shapes in a table?
A colleague has used a table to set out the elements of his page and
would like to align shapes (five squares ) in one of the resulting cells
but is unable to do so.
Any help gratefully received.

In Word 2002/2003, I believe the Align/Distribute commands are available
only when you are using the drawing canvas, but in a table, even with the
drawing canvas, they are disabled. I agree this is annoying.

Thanks Suzanne, I agree entirely.
