Photos and text boxes - Word 2007

[Sam]

Hello,

Is it possible to tie photos and their description (text box?) together? So
that if you move one the other moves with it appropriately? And not end up 4
pages a way from each other, by moving the photo up two spaces...

Is it possible to let you decide where to place the photo within the sheet,
and not Word?

In fact is there a way that you can have Word not think at all? Let the user
decide what they are trying to do, not Word. This would save hours of
frustration fighting the program.

Thanks for any advice you can offer,

Sam

Sorry, Sam, but you're trying to drive a screw with a hammer and blaming the
hammer for not doing the job correctly It isn't that Word can't provide
control for positioning of graphics, but it isn't that simple. Word docs
don't consist of pages - only the text content. The added objects are just
along for the ride.

If you have a desktop publishing/page layout program [such as MS Publisher]
available it will make your life much easier. If not & you can't obtain one
or must work in Word for some reason you will benefit from the following
information as well as the links it contains:
