I have a Word 2000 document consisting of a mixture of text and
pictures. The pictures are inserted by means of a link to the picture
files.

Is it possible to print the document without the pictures (either with
or without some text representing the link)?

If you go into Print Options, clear the checkbox for 'Include Drawing
Objects' or something similar (I cannot remember as far back as Word 2000).

But that assumes that the pictures are in the drawing layer. Inline pictures
would still print. One possibility would be to toggle the field codes of
just the linked pictures (I'm not sure whether updating fields on printing
would toggle them back or not, or how the "field codes" setting in Print
Options would affect this).

Thanks. I tried this originally without effect, but have had another
look at it. Help says this applies only to objects drawn with the
Drawing toolbar (so does not apply to inserted pictures) but including
field codes will do the trick, although it does mean you get all the
field codes, e.g. for page numbering, as well. Still this is good
enough for my needs.

It applies to floating pictures but not those inserted In Line - see
Suzanne's reply.

No, don't toggle all the field codes (and don't check "Show field codes" in
Print Options), just use Shift+F9 to toggle the ones for the pictures
specifically. You might then use Ctrl+F11 to lock those fields, to prevent
them from updating (though I don't know whether that would make the field
codes print instead of the picture or not).
