Photo Frame

[Guest]

Windows XP Updated
MS Word 2002
I insert a photo frame in a document and select >Insert Picture from the
tool bar.
The photo appears outside the box in its own size.
And the orginal 'box' shrinks to cursor size
It used to work fine a while ago and something happened.
Would I need to change a particular setting?
Is it possible the box will not accept a photo because it's a text only box?
ps. I can insert text in the first box, if that helps.

Not sure what you're referring to as a 'photo frame'.

There is no need to create any kind of frame in order to use the
Insert>Picture command, and Frame refers primarily to Web pages. Once
inserted you can apply a border to a picture, but not before.

What tool/command are you using to create this 'photo frame'? |:>)

I'm using a MS Word based inspection software that include a toolbar that has
a button called photo frame. Actually there are three that place a 'box on
the left and right and one bigger on in the middle. I call them photo frame
because once the cursor is over the button a small box calls it that.

In the past, I have clicked on on e button a box pops up and I insert a
photo that would go into that box. But lately something has happened. I'm
thinking it may be a word document I opened from another firm with different
settings that changed MY settings.

I read somewhere that a text box can be changed into a photo (box?).

If you're using an add-in, then you probably need to discuss your problems
with the author of the add-in.
