Hi Suzanne,
FWIW, if you use Insert=>Picture [from File] Word does retain the original file name of the picture in Word Doc/DocX, XML and HTML
files. It often loses it in .RTF.
If you save as HTML and look at the source (or prior to Word 2007) use the MS Script Editor choice with a document that is open, or
use Web Page Preview in Word and look at the source the picture filename should appear as a 'title' property in the source, and
relate it to the 'Image001.jpg name used outsside of Word, something like this
<v:imagedata src="YOURDOCNAME_files/image001.jpg" o:title="ORIGPICFILENAME"/>

Thanks, Bob. That's why I was asking about the MSE elsewhere in these NGs,
because I thought I recalled reading that the original filename could be
ascertained that way. Unfortunately, I couldn't confirm it because
apparently the MSE isn't installed in my copy of Word 2003, and I haven't
gotten around to installing it.
This post was actually a sort of lightning rod or troll to see if someone
would pop up and contradict me. It worked!
