How do I group multiple graphics together?

An illustration created from several smaller images must be grouped to form one object.:

1. Notice the difference between the Ungrouped example and the Grouped example. The objects in the first example each have their own "handlers" or points that enable them to be changed by dragging, rotating, etc. The second example has one set of "handlers" for all three images.
2. To group multiple images into one illustration, highlight all images and right-click and select "Grouping" and then "Group."
   
3. Once the image is grouped, right-click and select "Format Object".
   
4. Select the "Web" tab and type descriptive text in the "Alternative Text" box.
