How can I get the handles for a picture frame in Publisher?

P

Pinto

Whenever I try to make a picture frame, I get an insert picture menu box
instead of the frame itself. Upon clicking cancel, the entire box, menu, is
deleted and I cannot get the box to get the handles to resize the picture.

I should say an insert picture window appears. I am not able to create a
picture box at all.

I believe 2002. I have worked with this before, and for some reason think it
should give me an emply picture frame; however, I may be very wrong.

We don't need to dwell long on this, though; I can make it work this way,
too. Thank you!

Publisher 2002 accidentally dropped support for empty picture frames. It is
reintroduced in Publisher 2003.

What version? Only 2003 has the option to insert an empty frame (or
did 2002 as well, I forget, though I'm convinced it was documented in
the 2002 help in error).

2002 was the only version NOT to support empty picture frames.
Even Publisher 49 supported EPFs!

A popular quote from David A (possibly others) - Publisher 98 was known as
Publisher 49 as it was only half a program.

P02 accidentally dropped the feature, P03 reinstated it.

That's true - I'm old, Eddie, and my memory is fading. You young
whippersnappers, why when I was your age I could go to town on a fiver... <<

We used to take the buggie that Herm and Sherm were quite happy to pull.
A bag of oats = 32¢ and it lasted for two trips.

I think the two of you are full of what Herm and Sherm left behind on the
road. ;-)

JoAnn,

Just you wait. "I can remember the days were we could only connect at 2
Meg/Sec." "Gee Grandma, now I understand why your hair is white and
gray." "Granny, tell me again how you walked uphill 3 miles to get to
school, then had to walk another 3 miles uphill to get home. Oh, and I'm
curious. Back then, in the ice age, did the winters really last from
September until May as you suggest? It must be this Global Warming thing
that keeps our winters from December until February."

"BTW, Granny, did you ever meet Barney the Dinosaur? Were you friends
with T-Rex? Did you collect any rocks or such that now are called
fossils? It would be neat to take these things to "Show and Tell" and
let my classmates know how you people lived back in the rock and roll
age. But a question, granny, did rocks really roll that often?"

With your help, I'm sure I can get a good grade in school, but as you
may be aware, if you can still read, grades don't count. We have learnt
that all of us are created equal, so giving us a grade on how we do -
well, that's just so early 21st Century.

Love ya, Granny, and if I can get past the security at your old timers
community, I'll bring you a rocking chair.

Your heir,

Sandrea
