Word 2003 suddenly stopped displaying pictures in all documents in
which pictures were inserted. They show up fine in PrintPreview mode
but otherwise I see only the empty space where the picture would
normally be.

I came across a post in this group where a user described what seemed
to be the identical problem. The suggested solution was to turn
graphics acceleration off. I did that but to no avail.

What else could be the cause of this problem.

In Tools Options View, make sure "Drawings" is checked and
"Picture placeholders" is not checked.
