Is it possible to insert images into questions for this forum? Is there some
technique for providing such information?

Sometimes a question may be better explained if a picture of a form, data or
process model, or other artifact can be sent along with the text question.

Thanks in advance!!!

No

You could place a screenshot, etc. on an image hosting website
and post a link to it here so people in the ng can look at it
if they choose.
 
Newsgroup etiquette here does not allow attached images. There've been too
many situations in which an attachment is the vehicle for delivering a virus
or other malware.

Folks here are generally unwilling to risk infection by opening an image
file...

Never, unless you get a reply (in the newsgroup) with an offer to receive a
file. Generally, a careful, short description is enough for us to answer a
problem.

And, if your description is not in enough detail, someone will ask you for
more detail, and might even be able to tell you _what_ additional detail is
needed. And, there's a good chance they'll be very polite the first time or
two... I've seen some people get rather "out of sorts" when a poster
re-posts, unaltered, the same question or text four or five times after
being asked for more information.
