If you are getting just the placeholders on the graphic itself, try selecting the graphic and formatting the layout to 'in front of text'. Unless you have some specific settings customized in your normal.dot, such as default margin/font settings, there should be no harm to create a new normal.dot. Rename your current one to NormalOrig.dot so you will still have it in case there is a problem, then you can delete the new one and rename this one back to normal.dot. Also, there is a link here to a discussion on this same issue with a good deal of information. hth, Cathy Here is the url in case my link didn't work: http://www.utteraccess.com/forums/showflat.php?Cat=3D&Number=3D622396&pag= e=3D0 &view=3Dcollapsed&sb=3D5&o=3D&fpart=3Dall&vc=3D1 =20 "Peter A.

I just assumed that changing the normal.dot file would create a blank slate for me to work with and might allow me to view graphics. Would it hurt to do this in the meantime while I wait? =3D20 thanks=3D20 Peter Wilson, CCNA Network Administration/Support Heritage-Encon Inc 704-588-1366 (W) 704-451-0596 (C)=3D20 -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Andrew Kendon Sent: Monday, May 02, 2005 11:57 AM To: mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [mso] Re: Word not showing graphics Then, I think we have to wait till someone with XP experience comes up with the answer (I take it you've tried Help). I jumped from 2000 to 2003, so never took much notice of XP, I'm afraid. I, too, have an occasional problem with graphics not displaying but if I switch views and back I find that they can be persuaded to display again. Sorry I can't help further.
