Hi All, A couple of weeks ago I put a question to the list about the *extremely* annoying new *feature* in Word 2002 wherein when you select Insert -> Picture -> From File it always defaults to thumbnail view and you have to select manually "List" or "Details" or whatever you want. No-one appears to have known the answer but I have just found two solutions and thought I should share them with the list as I know others have this problem too. If you go to http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=301459&FR=1 <http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=301459&FR=1> this lists two solutions: a macro and a hotfix. I am using the macro attached to a new button on a toolbar and it's heaven! Someone from MS will be contacting me within a couple of days about the hotfix. Don't know why you can't just download it. Anyway I hope this info helps someone, it has certainly made my life easier!
