RED X in office programs

[grolln]

I am working with Office 2003 in a networked XP environment and many of the
presentations, documents sent to me from others have the images embedded in
them that do not display in my profile. Everyone else can see them. I have
updated Office with the latest updates and it does not fix the problem. Will
removing my profile and creating another help? If so how can I do it safely?

A red x in place of a graphic is more of a system resources problem, which
may be more problematic if working across a network. Check here for lots of
info on Red X issues: http://www.rdpslides.com/pptfaq/FAQ00064.htm

Tried your suggestions from the links and the problem is still present. Are
there anymore options. I need to get this resolved for my boss. And thanks
again for all your help.

I don't know that there's an easy fix for you. What happens if you copy the
file to the harddrive and work from there instead of from the server?

Copying it to the harddrive does not fix the problem. It has something to do
with the profile. Other log on from the same machine and do not have any
problems seeing the images from the harddrive or over the network. Some one
must have had this problem resolved before. This is really getting
bothersome.

Well, then I guess creating a new profile is the answer you're looking for.

I can't advise you on that, as I don't really know a lot about it. Maybe
check in the appropriate Windows newsgroup for info on creating profiles.
