Default Copy-Paste=Imbed

I am converting many WP documents to Word 2007. Sometimes I need to copy an
image to the converted document since not all images were contained in the
new Word document. When I cut an image from the WP document and paste into
Word, I do not get the image just an Embed pointer. How can I get the image
itself pasted?

If you see is something like { EMBED . }, you only need to press Alt+F9 to
toggle field codes.

Fields can be in two modes: they can show the result, i.e. the content that
will print, or they can show the code behind. Alt+F9 toggles field codes on
and off.

Lene,

Thanks for your reply. Looks like it works! Will have to experiment more. I
do not think I ever did a print preview with the EMBED shown so just thought
it was missing. Thanks again for your help.
