As Paul mentioned, it could be the winding rule (could be set differently if one of your objects started out as text).
You could try running the following macro on the combined graphic.
Sub ToggleWindingRuleOfSelectedObjects() Dim s As Shape For Each s In ActiveSelection.Shapes If s.Type = cdrCurveShape Then If s.FillMode = cdrFillWinding Then s.FillMode = cdrFillAlternate Else s.FillMode = cdrFillWinding End If End If Next sEnd Sub
If this doesn't fix it, I might ask you to send me the file.

Yup, the winding rule fixed it. They should have a button to do this automatically. Or better yet, have it do it on its' own.
FosterCoburn said:Hendrik, Thanks for posting the cool macro. This would make a good built-in feature.
No prob, and I agree. Tony and I have spoken briefly about this one before, but other stuff seems to take precedence. I'll bring it up again.
More macros would be good too, it might also inspire people to create some of their own.
