Objects/Pictures don't appear in Word

C

Calvin H. Johnson

When I insert a picture or an object in a Word 2002
document, all that appears is a box, or, when clicked,
handles of the object. The picture/clipart itself does
not appear in regular, print or web mode. However, when I
do a print preview, I can see the picture or object.
Unfortunately, I cannot edit the picture or object in the
document, so I can't move it or anything. I have the
latest patch to Word 2002 and Windows XP Professional.
Would appreciate any insight here. Thanks.
