I am using MS Word 2003. When I paste a picture on the page the image is not
visible. There is only a thin line around the picture. How do I see the
picture?

In Word, click on Tools | Options | View | check the "Drawings" box and
uncheck the "Picture placeholders" box | OK. If this doesn't fix the
problem, then try reducing the hardware acceleration setting in Start |
Control Panel | Display | Advanced | Troubleshooting.
