How can I move a picture in word 2007.
I inserted a picture in a blank page, Selected the picture and tried to drag
it. It won't move. I tried the picture, then format tab, then align. I tried to unselect Align to Margin, but it would not Unalign Any suggestions. It should be an easy solution, but I am stuck. |

The out-of-the-box default for inserting pictures is a text wrapping of "in
line with text", meaning that it behaves like a single character. You can drag it to another position within text -- but if there is no other text on the document, there's no place to drag it to. You can change any single picture after inserting it, by clicking the Text Wrapping button on the Picture Tools ribbon and choosing another wrapping setting. You can change the default wrapping by clicking Office button Options Advanced and setting the dropdown for "Insert/paste pictures as" to Square or Tight or Top & Bottom. Then you'll be able to position the pictures anywhere on the page, even when there is no text. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
