how do i insert pictures and text on a page
I'm a computer novice, using MS office word 2007
Is it possible to put a row of 5 or 6 photos (resized approx 2''x2'') down the right side of a page and have the relevent text down the left side ??? I have managed to write text, and have managed to insert and resize and play with the photos, but things keep moving and refusing to go where i want them if i do both together ta surferboy |

how do i insert pictures and text on a page
Have you tried using a table with two columns, with or without borders - your
choice. Depending on the look yuu are after you can have a row per image this will ensure that the text in the opposite cell will be aligned nicely. When using a table cell, ensure that the images are "InLineWithText" and not floating, this will negate any problems with the images not being where you want them to be exactly. Hope this helps DeanH "surferboy" wrote: I'm a computer novice, using MS office word 2007 Is it possible to put a row of 5 or 6 photos (resized approx 2''x2'') down the right side of a page and have the relevent text down the left side ???

how do i insert pictures and text on a page
If you happen to have Publisher, you may find this task a lot easier. If
not, use a two-column table. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "surferboy" wrote in message ...

how do i insert pictures and text on a page
thanks guys
i thought i could just put pictures on the page and then use text wrap to put text around them. silly me...i should know nothing on a computer is that staight forward. seems whenever i solve one part of a puzzle another part comes up......... managed to put two columns on page and resize them but i cant get anything in the right column. the little black mark that shows where your letters are going stays on the left column how do i put my photos on the right column ? whats the best book to buy that helps me do basic stuff, and describes it in basic english (not computer language) WITH PICTURES ! so i dont have to keep asking silly questions "JoAnn Paules" wrote: If you happen to have Publisher, you may find this task a lot easier.
