Word 2003 Clip Art

[Joy]

This is sort of a design gallery question and I'm asking another part of the
question there in that group. However here I am wanting to know how to
know/find particular clip art with 2003. Previously I had Word 97 and it
was SO easy to Insert - Clip Art - MS Clip Gallery. Right now I have
imported some clip art into my Clip Art Organizer and cannot figure out how
to get it into Word 2003. Copy and Paste doesn't work, so I'm using
Insert - Clip Art. Then the panel shows up on the right side and it is VERY
confusing to know what to choose in order to find the clip art in the
Organizer. Thanks for any help.

If you import clips into Clip Organizer you need to add keywords manually
for the clips to searchable. To use clipart from Clip Gallery the easiest
solution is to use your old office CD and do a custom setup to install just
Clip Gallery. To use Clip Gallery in 2003 Go Insert | Object | choose
Microsoft Clip Gallery from the list to launch Clip Gallery

In the clipart taskpane in the search for box enter a keyword to find the
clip you want then right click choose insert or simply select the clip and
drag into the document.

You can also launch Clip Organizer by going to Start | Programs | Microsoft
Office | Microsoft Office Tools | Clip Organizer

Someone helped me to be able to Copy and Paste, so since I hadn't given the
clip art "names" in the Organizer, the Copy/Paste option seems easier.
Thanks for the suggestions. (Had to uncheck Picture placeholders to make
C/P work.)
