You will have to unprotect the document to do this. That can be done with a
macro either run on exit from one of the formfields or by assigning the macro to the keyboard or a button on a toolbar. The macro should unprotect the document using the command ActiveDocument.Unprotect, then it should move the selection to the cell in the table where you want the picture inserted - best done by inserting a bookmark in that cell and then using ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Name of Bookmark").Range.Select, and then it should use the command Dialogs(wdDialogInsertPicture).Show to display the Insert Picture dialog so that the user can select the picture. Then the macro should contain the command ActiveDocument.Protect wdAllowOnlyFormFields NoReset to reprotect the document. -- Hope this helps.

I noticed several requests over the last month or so for a method of
inserting a picture into a protected form. I've prepared a sample template with the macro code required to do it. You can download it from http://jay-freedman.info/form_picture.zip. If you have any questions about it, please post here or email me at the address in the template. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org On Mon, 25 Apr 2005 20:09:01 +0200, "Doug Robbins" wrote: You will have to unprotect the document to do this.
