Bending text to conform to awning shape

I know that Mr. Catamountain (:0)

One of the youtube tutorials said to make a cylinder, I did it just like
him, then make a 3d text word, I copied even same word and font. Then he
proceeded to drag the word onto the middle of the cylinder face, so did I.
After that, he exploded the text, OK, I did too. But Then he used the
push/pull tool to (supposedly) push the lettering into the cylinder. I got
an error saying I can’t do that to a curved surface. So I’m dead in the
water. It sucks to be me, but I am determined to learn Sketchup, and with
the heros that have been helping, I think I can do it. Thanks for your
interest.
