how do i paste a jpeg file onto microsoft word

If the jpeg is on your hard drive, then in Word click on Insert | Picture |
From File. If the jpeg is on a website, it might be better to right-click on
the jpeg, "save target as" to your hard drive, then insert picture from file.
 
Can you explain with substantially more detail what you are trying to
do? What is the source of the image you are trying to copy... a Word
file, a website, or ??? What happens when you try to save as jpeg?
 
The first thing your daughter did (right-click, copy, paste) should work. To
change the empty box into the actual image, in Word click on Tools | Options
| View tab | uncheck the "Picture placeholders" box | check the "Drawings"
box | Print tab | check the "Drawing objects" box | OK.
 
When you paste a picture from the Web, you're just pasting a link to the
picture's online location. There are two ways around this:

1. The quick and dirty way is to paste the picture, then select it and press
Ctrl+Shift+F9 immediately to unlink it. This embeds the picture in the
document.

2. A better way, which makes the picture available to other documents (and
to this one should anything untoward happen to it) is to save the picture in
your My Pictures folder. Right-click on the picture on the Web page and
choose Save Image As. You should be able to save it as a JPEG or GIF
(whichever it is). If .bmp is your only option, then you need to clear your
file cache. In Internet Explorer, select Tools | Internet Options. On the
General tab, under "Temporary Internet Files," click on Delete Files...

I don't know why this is happening, but it seems that a possible solution
would be for you to save the file using your profile, to a location your
daughter can use.

If you will give me a link to the graphic you're trying to copy, I will see
what happens on my system.

You insert a link by clicking on the URL in the address bar of your browser
and pressing Ctrl+C. You then press Ctrl+V to paste it into a message. In
this case, that is
http://stockimg.free.fr/wallpaperlinks/divx/cinema/spiderman.jpg. If I
right-click on that image and choose Save Picture As, I have no trouble
saving spiderman.jpg to any desired folder. If you can't do that, have you
tried clearing the cache as I suggested?

FWIW, you don't have to double-click an image in Google Images results; a
single click suffices.

Yes I tried clearing the cache, but each time I do the computer freezes up. I
then have to hit Ctrl+Alt+ Del to get the system running again.
 
At this point, then, you might be better served by asking questions in an IE
NG.
