Compress Picture stopped working

[Guest]

My compress picture button was working great until I accidentally clicked the
pop-up making sure I wanted to do it and said "don't show me this again" .
How do I get it to show me that pop-up again so my compress picture will
work.

I'm using Word 2002.

THANKS!!!

Hi whimzee

MVP colleague Peter Jamieson dug up a registry key you can reset:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Common\DrawAlerts\OptimizePictureSize
to 0 in the registry (for Word 2003)

Look for the same key with ...\Office\10.0\... for Word 2002 (I haven't
tested this).
