Thanks, JoAnn,

That was easy! What I miss, however, is an indication of the change
having been done. Before you could click the photo, open the Format/Picture
box, and see that the color photo had been reset to grayscale. The grayscale
icon in Word '07 does not appear to be highlighted or otherwise indicate that
the clicked photo adheres to that option.

Earlier versions of Word had a Format/Picture option of changing an
imported
color picture to grayscale or even 1-bit black-and-white. I have found
most
of the other commands, but can't find this one. Is it there, or do photos
and scans have to be 'decolorized' before they are imported into Word?
