Disappearing graphics in Word

[Linda]

Using Macs.
Office 2000
I pasted a jpg. in a Word document and sent it to a friend. When she
opened it, she saw only the graphics box, not the graphic. She sent
it back to me, and I could see it perfectly. She needs the graphic.
I then emailed it as an enclosure, but it doesn't show up when she
pastes it in either.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Tell her to go to Tools | Options | View and clear the check box for
"Picture placeholders."

Hi Linda,

Be sure that she is in Print Layout view
and that the setting for Picture Placeholders
in Tools=>Options=>View is turned off.

Hi Linda,

If your graphic has been inserted as a link to the file,
rather than by pasting directly into Word, then your user
won't be able to see it even after doing the other things
that have been suggested unless they place the graphich in
a folder with the same path and name that you've used.

Cheers

What is the procedure to insert graphic as a link to the file?

Thanks, Novice

Insert | Picture | From File. Select the desired graphic and, instead of
double-clicking or clicking on Insert, click on the arrow beside Insert and
choose Link to File.
