I have Word 2007. I used Ctrl+V to paste a graphic into a table
cell. Thereafter,I could NOT click and get the picture frame and
handles for that graphic. Nor could I delete the graphic. (Finally, we
used "convert to text" and then it responded as usual, with handles, etc.)

Afterwards I experimented with Paste Special and found that some
formats (JPEG, GIF, e.g.) worked fine when pasted into a table cell and
some (HTML and one or two more) did not. All the formats worked just
fine if pasted into the document as long as it was not a table cell.

Is there a default format when one uses Ctrl+V to paste a graphic?
Is it the last paste format that was used?

Is this the way it's supposed to be? I was very frustrated not to be
able to deal with the pasted graphic in any way whatsoever.
