Most of my embedded graphics disappeared.
Anybody know how to recover from this or why it happened?

Read the fourth FAQ here, it is Publisher specific but it is the same with Word.

Sorry.
That didn't do it.
Those images are just GONE.
Thanks anyway!

Perhaps if you'd provide some detail - including which version of Word, file
format, etc. - someone might be able to offer additional suggestions. Even
if it doesn't help the current situation it may help avoid future loss

OK.
I have a 100 page Word document that from time to time loses most of its
embedded images.
I hate it when that happens!
Does anybody know why it does that and how can I prevent it?
I am using Word 2003 on Windows XP.
The document has held together through a dozen iterations.
Now, most images are gone from all the iterations except the original files
from the client!
I did a copy and paste process yesterday, which seemed to go ok.
but after I closed and reopened the document, the images were blank again!
Although there wer blank images on top of the original blank images!
1) I am looking at the document in Print Layout View.
2) I have set Tools, Options, View, Drawings to ON.
3) I have tried shutting down and restarting my computer.
4) I have set the graphics hardware accelerator to a low
level.(Display>Settings>Advanced>Troubleshoot>slider to Low or None!)
Any suggestions or advice gratefully accepted!
Thanks!

In those same View Options is there a check in the box for Picture
Placeholders? Clear it.
If the doc has gone through as many revisions as you suggest it is also
possible that it has become corrupted - epecially if the *originals* are OK
and the revisions are the ones having the problem. It still isn't clear,
though, whether you're dealing with _one_ document or several different
copies of it. The first point below suggests that it's one doc that
"sometimes" displays the images & "sometimes" doesn't. Then later you refer
to "all the iterations". I'm sure you're clear in your mind, but it isn't as
obvious to those who aren't there to see it
