For more information about the support options available from Microsoft, please see the following page on the World Wide Web: http://www.microsoft.com/support/supportnet/refguide/The following macro changes the default behavior in Word so that pasted objects are pasted as inline rather than floating objects. NOTE: Office Art objects are converted to pictures and pasted inline.
Copy the picture to the clipboard. If you want to paste the picture as an inline object, run this macro. If you want to paste the object normally (as a floating object), use the Paste command on the Edit menu.
STATUSIn most cases, you can resolve this problem by upgrading to Microsoft Word Service Release 1 (SR-1). For information about how to upgrade to SR-1, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: Q172527 WD97: How to Obtain Word 97 for Windows Service Release 1 MORE INFORMATION
Inline objects are treated as characters and are positioned as characters
within a line of text. In versions of Word earlier than Word 97 for Windows
and Word 98 Macintosh Edition, all pictures are treated as inline objects.
