Copying images from Word without being pixelized and blurry

I have images in a Word Document (2002 and 2004) but when I copy them in Word
and then try to paste them into other applications (wysiwyg editors, even
paint) they look blurry and appear to have little dots on them.

Any help would be REALLY REALLY great!

Thanks!!

What you see is what you get. If the information isn't there there's nothing
you can do about it, other than make them smaller in the target application
(making them smaller effectively increases the resolution).

Does anyone know if there is any other work around? I need the screen shots
to be the same size in the other applications - but I want them to look the
same, is there really nothing I can do?

Thanks!

The problem was created when the graphics went into Word in the first place.
Word is a really lousy place to store graphics. For future reference, the
way to approach this is to paste the screen shot into a graphics application
(PhotoShop, MS Imaging, etc), then save it as a graphic file (eg as a GIF or
JPG). Then import that file into Word and whatever other applications need
to use it.
