In Microsoft Word, how do I wrap text around a letter?

Question

Hey guys!

Basically what I'm trying to do is wrap my text around another text (for example, wrap some text that's size 12 around a single letter text that's size 72). Any ideas how to do this?

One way 
Create the Large letter in Paint using the text tool.
Cut out the letter and paste it in a word document.
Click on the letter and from the menu choose text wrapping and from the drop down menu choose through. Put the cursor where you want it and type your regular text.
Works for Microsoft Word 2007 and 2010. May work for older versions of Office as well but not sure.
