Pictures, Clipart Insert Problem

[Adrian]

When doing a print screen, or inserting clipart into Word
XP the picture does not past. All I see is a black box
with nothing in it. Any suggestions on how to correct
this problem?

Thanks,
Adrian

Hi Adrian,

It could be a couple of things.

If you use Edit=>Paste Special in Word
what format is the one that is selected
as the default for the paste?

What build version of Word is shown in Help=>About?

Have you updated your graphics card driver for
this PC?

On the View tab of Tools | Options, make sure that "Picture placeholders" is
not checked.
