Word 2003 has a bad habit of randomly changing some tools options
settings. This is no doubt another example. If the problem persists you'll
have to force it to behave with auto macros.

In Word, click on Tools | Options | View tab | check the "Drawings"
box
and uncheck the "Picture placeholders" box | Print tab | check the
"Drawing objects" box | OK. Pictures that are not formatted as
"inline
with text" will only be visible in Print Layout view.

I am using MS Word 2003. Recently, I cannot see pictures in print
layout, normal, or print layout view. However, I can see them in
reading layout. the probem is that I cannot edit their size or
position because picture format or properties is not available in
reading layout mode. What is the problem how can I fix it?
