photos copied into WORD are 'invisible,' how can I get them to sho

[Jane Cowtown]

Hi,

I used to copy photos/pics into WORD documents all the time. HOwever, I had
to change out my Hard Drive and so had to reload Office 2003.

Now in WORD when I copy a picture, whether from internet or my own pictures,
the frame shows up (the tiny squares that delinieate the top, bottom and
corners) but the picture is either invisible or not fully copied. I can see
the photo displayed correctly in the Clipboard; but, not in the WORD document.

To test if the photos/pics are OK, I found that the same photos copy
perfectly into PowerPoint, but PowerPoint is a hassle for long documents
where I want to integrate the text and photo.

I also tried copying the "invisible photo" from WORD to PowerPoint (after
clearing the clipboard); to test what is actually getting pasted into the
WORD. No photo transferred; so I think this is something faulty in either
WORD or Paste or Display -- but I can't solve it. Can someone help?

Can any one help, please?
