can I create a pict box where a pict can conform to its shape?

[Guest]

Is there somewhere in word where I can create a specifically sized box and
insert a picture that will automatically resize to the box?

No, Word doesn't support this in any of its built-in features. You can create
a FRAME (from the Forms toolbar) and size either the height or the width to
an exact dimension. Any picture you insert will size to the set dimension;
the other dimension will size proportionately.

Other than that, you'd need to insert an Image control from the Controls
Toolbox. But do note that this will trigger macro security.
