Placing graphics

J

John Wright

Is there a way I can place an image in Word using VBA or VB using an XY
coordinant system?

If not, I have a document that I automate out of a VB program that places
text and graphics on a page by bookmark. The images are inline and need to
anchor to the bookmark. If I do not show the document my graphics are put
all over the page. If I show the form during the processing the graphics
get placed but the users are confused as they see this word document
flashing and rearranging itself during this process. I am using tables for
this layout. The best way for me to do this is to place the text at the
bookmarks, then place the graphics on the page at an XY position without
showing the form at all. Any suggestions, VB6 word 9.0 object library.

Have you just a tried an Application.ScreenUpdating=False for the
duration of the placement?
