A big thank you to everyone who responded with great practical advice on my
husband's MS Word issue with graphics. I passed on the info that he hadn't tried
and I know that it will be of great help to him and a huge relief to me since I
won't have to watch him growl and tear at his hair in frustration.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Subject: Re: TARGET: TECH: MS Word problem with graphics
My techie/hubby is having tremendous difficult with some graphics that he and his
MBA team are creating and inserting into MS Word. He is having trouble moving
things where he wants them, and trying to add text-- then moving a graphic.
sometimes he cannot grip the graphic to move it. He's literally tearing his hair
out. I've never seen him have such difficulty. He refuses to try WordPerfect,
since MS Word "is the industry standard..."
Any suggestions? He's working with grouping them, but still problems crop up.
Thanks!
