hello all

I am a complete novice helping my dad who is an even completer novice, with his new computer with preloaded Microsoft Works. We tried all day to 'import' a picture from outside of Works, into a page of text, but it just keeps showing up as an open-topped box with just the very bottom of the image in it.

tried importing different types of image files (psd, tiff, jpeg) from all different locations, nothing makes any difference.

tried expanding/moving the topless box, makes no difference either, except that if we shrank the width of the box to a quarter of its size, a little bit more of the bottom of the pic would appear.

Any help greatly 'preciated.

cheers

Welcome to MSFN, ali. I've yet to use Microsoft Works, so I'm unsure how to tackle your problem. But you might get a better response if you post it the Software Discussion forum, here:

Good luck!

As much as I hate to say it, MS Works is about the worst Word Processor ever. I'd recommend Open Office well before MS Works.

It'd have been better to report this and ask Zxian to move the post directly there.
