Default Default picture format to "inline with text"

As Suzanne noted, as of Word 2002 you have the option to set how you want
images pasted by default, such as inline, square, tight, behind text, etc.
There's no need for Paste Special or other workarounds.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email cannot be acknowledged.

Harvey and Suzanne,

Thank you for the responses. I commonly paste graphics from Excel and
from
CAD programs as pictures to avoid problems with font resizing and CPU
freezup. From the article posted at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQS/DrwGrphcs/InlinePasteSpec.htm, it appears that
Word 2002 and above can be fooled with a macro. The article does not
mention
Word 2003 or 2007.

Do you know if pictures can pasted InLine using the paste special command
by
Word 2003 or 2007 or whether these newer versions will tolerate macro
workarounds?
