Default seeing {merge format} instead of a graphic

Isn't that what I said to do?

Hi Peter,

If all the field codes are showing, it is highly unlikely that selecting either one or all fields then pressing F9 will change
that - only Alt-F9 or Word Options|Advanced and unchecking the 'show field codes instead of their values' option (under 'Show
document content') is likely to do so.

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?-
