Go to Office button Word Options Advanced, scroll down to the "Show
document content" section, and check "Show drawings and text boxes on
screen" and uncheck "Show picture placeholders".

There is no reasonable way to make assumptions about what version of Word
any poster is using. In fact, it isn't reasonable to assume that someone
posting in this group is really a new user -- many people pay no attention
at all to the group names. If you want information specific to Word 2007,
please say that you have Word 2007.

So where is this in Word 2007.

I know this is an old newsgroup with name 'new users' but by now you
should assume that 'new' means Word 2007!!!!\

I used Insert--Picture to insert a jpeg image. All I see is the
outline (size) of the image. It only shows in Print Preview. Is
there any way to make it visible while I am creating a template?
OMEd

In Tools Options View, check the option "Drawings" and uncheck
the option "Picture placeholders".

There is a separate "Drawing objects" option on the Print tab of the
same dialog, which you'll find is already checked (as indicated by
the fact you can see the picture in Print Preview).
