I'm no longer able to insert a bmp into a drawing....

I don't know what happened - I've done this hundreds of times up until
maybe sp2 of 2007 and now trying (in sp2.2) no matter what I try I
just get the annoying little 'package' instead of my image. I usually
drag and drop, but insert | object also doesn't work. Is there
another way to get my pic in there?

The most reliable method I found is to "cut and paste" instead of
"insert object" or "drag and drop".

Sorry if this is a repeat message, I thought I hit "send" but nothing
seemed to happen before.

Hello Zander,

I've had similar problems in the past. What I do know is that if you
have an older version of MS Office, you have Microsoft Photo Editor. I
think from MS Office version 2003, Photo Editor is no longer
available. As far as I can see, you need Microsoft Photo Editor on
your computer to be able to insert images in 2d drawings.

I managed to get MS Ph.E. from another computer, but haven't tested it
so far.

Kind regards,

JJ
