locking graphics
Hi,
I have a word document and I would like to lock down a large graphic in = the=20 background. It is just a .jpg that I have created in Photoshop. The = idea is to=20 have that graphic locked down in the background so it is not clickable, = but=20 the text placed on top would be editable/clickable. I am not sure Word has this capability, but would appreciate it if = anyone=20 knew and they could pass along the info. Thanks, Trent Morue |

Insert the graphic into the header, right-click on the graphic,
left-click on Format Picture | Layout | Behind text | OK, and drag the graphic to any desired position on the page. Close the header. Then type your text.

Garfield-n-Odie,
Thank you so much! That works great!!!! One more question. Does the word document store that background image=20 (placed within the header) inside the word doc? or does it link to it? I am hoping it holds all the info, so i can just send the word doc. Thx!!

Odie-n-garfield,
You've been a huge help. Thanks so much!! Trent -----Original Message----- Word can do either... depends on what you tell it to do. If you paste=20 the image in, then the image is stored as part of the Word document. = If=20 you paste link the image in, then the image is linked to an external=20 source instead of stored in the document. Press Alt+F9 to display = field=20 codes, and you will see the picture replaced with either an { EMBED }=20 field for the former or a { LINK } field for the latter. Press Alt+F9=20 again to switch back to display of field results. wrote: Garfield-n-Odie, Thank you so much! That works great!!!! =20 One more question.
