I recently upgraded from Microsoft 2000 to XP. Now when I paste screen
prints into my Word documents, the screen print disappears if I break to a
new page. All that's left is a black outline if you click where the screen
print is supposed to be. However, the screen print shows up in print preview
and prints OK when I print the document. Anyone know how to get the screen
print to show up in the document so I can see it while I work?
 
This sounds like a display driver problem. Try getting an updated driver
from your display adapter manufacturer's website. Another thing that
sometimes works is to reduce or turn off hardware acceleration in Start |
Control Panel | Display.
 
Make sure you don't have "Picture placeholders" checked on the View tab of
Tools | Options.
