Rectangle selection for scaling in Illustrator 9.0.2

[Sparkle_Plenty@adobeforums.com]

I've searched the forum before posting this question. Please accept my apologies in advance if this is too elementary, or has been asked before. I want to scale a rectangle by clicking and dragging on one of its bounding boxes. According to the Help and every book I've consulted, it couldn't be more simple: use the selection tool, click on one of the bounding boxes and drag to resize (scale) the rectangle. Well, I must be learning-impaired, because when I follow the instructions, all I can do is move the rectangle, not scale it. What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance!

Turn on bounding boxes (Ctrl+Shift+B).
