Clip Art task pane is blank

[Michiko]

I am taking Word 2007 and have assignments that require inserting certain
clip art in documents but I have no clip art showing in the clip art task
pane. I am using Office 2007 on Windows Vista. I couldn't find the same clip
art in Office Online. How do I find the clip arts that comes with Office
2007?
Thank you for your help!

I don't think many images were included with 2007. Do you have the Clip
Organizer installed? The Clip Organizer is the tool you use to find your clips.
You need to be online.

If your Internet temporary cache is full you will have problems downloading
clips. In Internet Explorer, tools, Internet Options, delete files.

Is your firewall setup to allow your gaining access to the Office site? Can you
accept the ActiveX control? The control is on the left pane on the Office web
site under "Clipart resources."

I am using a new notebook that I purchased 2 weeks ago and I don't go online
very often with this notebook. I usually use my mac to browse internet. So, I
don't think that temporary cache is full. According to the text book, the
task pane is supposed to include the thumb nails of clip arts but mine has
none. I do use Word 2007 at work and I get exact same clip arts in task pane
as the text book. Obvious ly the clip art didn't install when I installed
Office 2007. I will check the Clip Organizer when I get home tonight and post
again if I don't find it.

Thank you for your reply.
