From: Kirsten on 1 Jun 2010 18:31 I have inserted a pic into my document but when I try to move it it doesn't go where I put it. It goes just above or below etc. I have turned off the snap to grid feature but still can't move stuff to where I want. How can I fix this?
From: Graham Mayor on 2 Jun 2010 02:06 Inserted pictures are (by default) inserted in line with text, thus they behave much as a large font character. In order to move them around you need to select and change the wrap to something other than in line. -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> "Kirsten" <Kirsten(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:855C4452-2C1C-47DE-BB8D-B6E35735CF28(a)microsoft.com... > > I have inserted a pic into my document but when I try to move it it > doesn't > go where I put it.

Hello Kirsten, what you should do is to make your text flow around the picture, then you can move it freely.
