Just browsing thru looking for some answers myself. Don't quite follow
what's going on here and it looks a bit late. By now you've probably solved
your problem.

If I read this correctly (probably not), I'd say somebody is missing the
point here.

In Word, click 'Insert', 'Picture' and browse to the "graphic" ( ....jpg,
.... .gif, etc.)
you want to insert into Word at where the cursor is. Double-click or click
on the graphic file and follow directions.

If copying a graphic from another file to Word, right-click the picture in
the file and
click 'copy' on the menu. Right-Click in the Word file and click 'paste'. If
the picture
pasted elsewhere, browse you pages and drag it to where you want it.

Of course, as the party noted, you have to make sure first about the
'placeholder' thing.

I can cut/copy & paste .jpg files/photos into Power Point and from one folder
to another easily, but cannot do it into the middle of MS Word text or into
the body of an e-mail. I have Windows XP, MS Word 2003, Yahoo e-mail.
Please tell me step-by-step.
Thank you.
