I've using Microsoft Word 2003. I'm inserting pictures into a
document, then repositioning them as appropriate. This started off
fine, but now it doesn't work the same as it did. Initially when I
inserted a picture from file (a jpg or gif) it came up with the
circular handles around it that allowed me to move and resize the
image within my document. However now when I try and insert an image,
there's just the small black squares in the corners. It appears at the
top of my page and I can't move it anywhere. What have I done, and how
can I get it back into the format/mode where I can easily move it
about?

Thanks for any help.

Steve

Please try the following and let me know if it works:

Single click on the picture to highlight it. On the toolbar, go to
Format > Picture. Choose Layout, then Square (or Tight). Click OK. Now
you should be able to move the picture around the page.

Best regards,
Rainbow
