Default Inserting pictures from file

As you insert them? - Insert into table cells of fixed width - the graphic
will adapt to the width.
Already inserted? - you'll need a macro. At its simplest the following will
resize all images inserted to 4" square - however, depending on what is in
your document this may not work in quite the way you envisage.

Dim oShp As Shape
Dim iShp As InlineShape
' Resize floating shapes
For Each oShp In ActiveDocument.Shapes
With oShp
.Width = InchesToPoints(4)
.Height = InchesToPoints(4)
End With
Next oShp
' Resize in line shapes
For Each iShp In ActiveDocument.InlineShapes
With iShp
.Width = InchesToPoints(4)
.Height = InchesToPoints(4)
End With
Next iShp

You might find it better to pre-set the images at the required size in a
graphics application - such as the excellent SnagIt, or the free Google
Picasa 2
