Default Pasting pictures doesn't work!

Uncheck 'Picture placeholders' in Word Options Advanced Show Document
Content (Word 2007) or Tools Options View (Earlier Word versions)

is not an error message but a link. You have a link inserted in your
document that calls an image on a web page.
ALT+F9 will toggle the on screen display, and you may have to press
F9 whilst on line to update the image. You can then fix the image by
selecting and pressing CTRL+SHIFT+F9.
You would save yourself a lot of grief if instead of copying and
pasting from the imternet, ytou would right click the web image and
select 'save as' then insert the saved image into your document.

Hi I am new to word, but when I copy and paste pictures into my word
document from webpages, what I get is a tag line, say.. if I copy
the logo of windows microsoft office into a document instead of
getting a picture I get a blank image with borders around it.
When I open documents with pictures in them I get the tag
"{INCLUDEPICTURE
"http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?assetid=ZA100741741033"\*
MERGEFORMATINET}"; what do I do?! If I insert pictures from file I
get the same error message or a blank box.
Thanks in advance!



Hi Graham,

I tried that but it still doesn't work, what I get is a blank image
with wrap points around it and when I select it turns into a blank
image with borders; inserting pictures from file does the same! What
do I do! -ttse92
