Anyone had a problem trying to use the Alignment tool (align to left, to right, top or bottom) but it comes up gray'd out? Was working fine but now I can't align the objects anymore...?

Thanks,

You need to first select the text before those will become active.

Thanks Scott, but its not the text that won't align, its the actual objects I have on the page that won't align if I select a couple of them. I have different shapes on the page that until recently, when I selected 2 or 3 of them, I could align them all...now when I go to the alignment section the four choices are gray'd out?

Those options will only appear when text is selected a certain way. If you are trying to align multiple objects, you either single click on each holding the shift-key down or yo lasso them all at once. The alignment options will then appear.
