As for trying to find the solution in Word 2007 help - perhaps had I known
that what I was looking at were called field codes, I might have found the
solution. *Now that I know it, I still can't find the solution you offered. *

Thanks for your help. *I only saw the first reply to my post before trying
what Peter suggested. *When I got to work the next day, I opened the file I
had created that contained the graphics I am using. *I placed the cursor at
the top of the page - not highlighting or selecting anything. *I then pressed
Alt + F9. That did the trick. *All the graphics re-appeared. *I then opened
some other files at random and saw the graphics had re-appeared in those
documents as well, just from having done Alt + F9 in the graphics file.
I greatly appreaciate this forum, since all the searches I did in Word 2007
help, never addressed the issue or gave me the oh-so-simple solution. *

Alt-F9; or select any individual field(s) (or all of them: Ctrl-A) and
Shift-F9

I e-mailed a word document as an attachment to a supervisor. *She made a few
changes to it and e-mailed it back to me. *When I clicked to open it, *a box
popped up asking me if I wanted to merge with ??? (sorry, I didn't write it
down because I didn't know it would create a problem). *I clicked yes. *Since
then I can't view graphics in ANY of my Word 2007 files. *Instead of a
graphic I get:
{INCLUDEPICTURE " \*MERGE FORMAT}
When I print the document, the graphic appears on the printout. *But it
doesn't appear on my screen when I have the file open. * This is quite a
problem, as I've "lost" all my graphics. *I'm writing a training manual and
need the issue correct asap. *What do I do to correct the problem?-
