Default Locking pics to the text

Which Word version are you using?
For 2003 and prior the following can help, this may differ for 2007.
Change the setting for the image to "In Line with Text", this can be found
by select image, mouse right click, Format Picture, Layout.
To ensure that all future images have this setting as default, Tools,
Options, Edit, Insert/Paste Pictures as: choose "In Line with Text" option
(this is 2003 only).
The Move with text can be ignored by some of the other layout options, ie
behind/in front/through, etc.
Beware using these options, the Square and Tight options can be used for
images that you want "within" the text and the Move with Text options does
work.
Hope this helps.

Hi,

Am writing a manual which needs pictures to be inserted between the text
lines. The problem i am having is that while i make changes to the text,
the pictures remain in the same place, rather than move along with the text
around it. I tried using the option Move with text in the Format Picture
screen. Makes no difference. what am i missing out on?

Thanks for any help. This is an urgent work I need to complete today.
