Cannot group image and caption together

Hello osto1017 ,

before I give you my reply, let me please ask you - what are you trying to achive by "grouping" the caption with the image? Why is your caption a text box?

The reason I ask is that you seem to be trying to achieve something I would expect to see in PowerPoint rather than in Word.

The captions are fields and can be styled as they are essentially text (well, not really, but for the sake of this conversation yes). Pictures and tables are objects. You don't "group" captions (= paragraphs) with pictures. That's a thing you do in PowerPoint but not in Word. Grouping works for objects only.

What you do:

- You 'insert' captions. You find them in the 'References' ribbon. 

- To make them "stick" with the picture/table/object below them, you mark the paragraph of the caption (and that only) with Keep with next (Home → Paragraph → Line and Page breaks).

Note: The above works only IF a caption is ABOVE an object (which is what you are doing, seeing the screen-shot).

Let us know if this helped you. L.
