Picture can't be selected

[danhattan]

In Word 2003, I inserted a picture by copying the image inside its .jpg file,
then pasted it into work. I then formatted the layout of the picture so that
it lays behind the text with Other selected as alignment.

Later, I realized I needed to resize the picture but Word won't let me
select it regardless of how I try to. Why is this happening, and much
appreciation for any help anyone can lend.

You can select it... just activate the SELECT tool on the DRAWING TOOLBAR
first.

When you put the image behind the text, it is like it is on a different
"layer" -- but with the select tool (looks like an arrow) you can just
click on it.

Awesome! Never used that tool before, and now I know why it exists. Thanks
very, very much for the help.
