open a picture to insert a graphic in Word 2003

[Mary Deal]

How do I open a picture or graphic to insert another graphic? I was able
to do this with recipe cards in Windows 98 using Word 95. I simply
highlighted
the card, right clicked, clicked open picture and was able to copy, paste, and
resize the graphic, then close the picture. "Open picture" does not seem to
be available in Word 2003.

There's a button in Tools/Customize/Commands, Drawing category, that you can
drag to your Drawing toolbar. It opens the Word's Picture editor.
