Picture Placement

I have a picture placed in a Word 2003 document with absolute settings
of .25" to right of page and .25" below page. When text goes to a
second page or I insert a page break the picture goes to the second
page. How can I keep it on the first page?

Only by dragging it back to where you want it.

Floating objects in Word are always anchored to a specific text paragraph (and
you can see which one if you go into the Options > View dialog and check the box
to show Anchors). It is impossible to place an object on a different page from
its anchor paragraph; if the paragraph moves to another page, then the object
moves, too.

Fundamentally, Word is a text-flow-oriented program, which is completely unlike
a page layout program such as Publisher in this regard.
