Hi,
Thanks for the previous tip to use Insert Picture from File and choose the
Link option. There is also an Insert and Link option. I was hoping to find
that option inserted the graphic AND maintained a link -- helpful for sending
the Word file around for reviewing (a little bulky to also send the folder of
graphics if we use just the Link option -- and we have reviewers who want to
review in Word to use change tracking).

But the Insert and Link option seems to behave just the same as the Inset
option. Have searched the online help but haven't found any relevant info.
Have tried to do Edit | Links and click "Update Now" for the link to the
"Insert and Link" graphic but that doesn't work (it doesn't update) , nor is
the automatic update option available on that dialog box (it is greyed out).

Any ideas?
Thanks,
--Ann
 
Insert and Link should do what you want. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable
can explain why it does not.
