Insert a Drawing Object Multiple Times in Office 2000 
Have you ever wanted to insert the same drawing object several times in
a row in your document, worksheet, or presentation? It's easy. Instead of
clicking the drawing object button every time you want to insert
the object, you can take advantage of the drawing object button's "sticky"
feature.
- To view the Drawing toolbar, right-click any toolbar and
select Drawing.
- To insert a drawing object several times, double-click the drawing
object button (such as Rectangle) on the Drawing toolbar.
The button stays selected or "sticky."
- Insert your drawing object several times by clicking in the
appropriate locations.
- When you're finished inserting the objects, click the drawing object
button again, or press ESC.
You can also turn any of the drawing objects available from the
AutoShapes button on the Drawing toolbar into "sticky"
drawing object buttons. Simply click the AutoShapes button, point
to a category (such as Flowchart), and a submenu of shapes opens
up. Drag the move handle at the top of the submenu to create a floating
toolbar. Then double-click the drawing object button (such as
Flowchart: Process). The button now stays "sticky."
