Look for the 'PrintScreen' button on your keyboard. Press it when you are on the page with the diagram on.
Go back to Word, click where you want the diagram and press Ctrl + V.
Then just crop it.

Save the Powerpoint slide as a JPEG image, then use Insert, File, from the Word Menu. Or, just copy and paste the JPEG into the Word document.
To group all the items in Powerpoint, all you need do is click on one item, then Edit, Select All.

The PrintScreen function will give you an image of the entire screen, which you can then trim. It's reliable, but it's not a great solution, however: the image is a bitmap at screen resolution, a likely to look poor unless you are going to scale it down uniformly to half size or less.
It seems that you can't group objects in Powerpoint. However, you can select all the objects that you want, and do a copy and paste in to Word. The trick is to do a "Paste Special" and not a normal Paste, and select "Picture" in the Paste Special dialog box. This will paste your selected objects in to Word as one big picture. The default is "MS Office Drawing Object", which keeps them as separate objects, which is why you need Paste Special.
Once they are in Word as a picture, they are still editable with Word's picture editor, which knows they are separate objects inside the picture.

There is no reason why you should not be able to group objects in PowerPoint, whether you have 2007 or earlier versions. Just click on the first to select, hold the shift key down and click on the others in turn. Then having selected them all, take finger off shift key, keep mouse within selected area, right button of mouse down to Group. If then you need to copy and paste into word it is just one object, although using CtrlA to select them all would also make it easy to copy and paste.

Do want on a powerpoint slide and save it. Then in Word go to 'insert' 'object' 'from file'
It will then find your slide. Click on it and it will insert into the Word page.
You can move it around and re-size it, but you can only alter it in powerpoint.
Hope this helps
