newbie "paste into" or masking question

[howl_dog@adobeforums.com]

Longtime Quark user here recently switched to InDesign, just getting
my feet wet with it.

I'm using windows xp and inDesign version 2.02

I've got a headline of text, several words, broken into five rows of text with returns.
and i want to basically paste a photograph inside the letters. Only way i could figure this out was to outline the text, then paste into, but that only works for one single word.

anyway to get the picture inside all words at once? I know how to do it in Illustrator, thats what i ended up doing, but just wondered if I could do this in InDesign for the future

thanks

With all the text (oulines) selected, go to Object->Compound->Make.
