Pics will not appear with using copy/paste in Word

[jsbaby80]

When I right click on a picture on the internet and select copy then go to paste it in Word, it "acts" like it has done it but the picture doesn't appear. Sometimes there is an outline though.
Any suggestions?

Use Paste Special, and choose Device Independent Bitmap.

Don't you right click on picture and Save Picture As...rather than Copy?

js,
From Word's help:

[li]You may have turned on the Picture placeholders view option. When a document contains pictures, turning on this option improves scrolling speed by displaying outlines instead of the pictures. To display the pictures, click Options on the Tools menu, click the View tab, and then clear the Picture placeholders check box.[/li]
[li]The graphic you want to see may be a drawing object — such as a text box, an AutoShape, clip art, or WordArt. Drawing objects are not visible in normal view. To view, draw, and modify drawing objects, you must be working in print layout view, Web layout view, or print preview.[/li]

Hope this helps
Larry
