Text box won't AutoFit to Text
Problem
You put a check next to "Resize AutoShape to fit text" in the Format dialog's Text Box tab but the the shape stubbornly refuses to cooperate.
Workaround
In the same dialog box, put a check next to "Word wrap text in AutoShape". This will force the "Resize ... to fit text" option to take effect.
