Copy & Paste Web Page

When I highlight and copy part of a web page and paste it into word the
pictures don't show up. I have picture placeholders unchecked. How do I get
the pictures to paste too. Thanks for any help.

What version of Word is this? Assuming Word 2003, choose Tools - Options -
View, and make sure that Drawings is checked (this can affect some pictures,
but not all). Click OK. You also need to make sure you're in Print Layout
view (in Normal view, pictures show up only if they're in-line with text).

If this doesn't do the trick, start simply and try copying/pasting just a
picture from the web. Does it work when it's just the picture? If not, are
there restrictions on the web site that prevent copying?
