Solved: Format image in word document
Hello all,
I have searched through this and a number of other forums and cannot find a procedure for fomatting an image in a word document.
I am relatively new at VBA so bear with me. The project is basically label creation. I need to create templates in word that I can populate with info from Access. I will worry about that link later. Right now I just want to try to replace the logo (.pcx) file in the template with another one while retaining the size. This is essential as I have roughly 12000 PCX files and I reeeaaallly don't want to go through and resize them all manually :P
:think:
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am not giving up... Yet. :banghead: I gave you twice what I thought were the details you were looking for.
Forgive me if it is unclear.. Let me spell it out again as clearly as I can.
No Template exists yet.
Correct me if I am wrong... (probably am) but I understand a template as being a word document with some data fields in it. In this case a picture, plus a few lines of text. I want to take that "Template" and replace the picture and the text with user given data, then save that as a new doc in a directory where it can be printed later as needed.

From what I just stated... We are starting from scratch... in that we will be replacing over the course of time all the existing labels. But I am trying to "Replace" an image that I have saved in my "template". But perhaps replace is not exactly the right word. I am placing a new image file into the document, but I want it to appear at the same place and the same size no matter which image I paste.
So am I approaching this wrong? Is there actually a format called "Template" that I can place data and image fields as necessary and then just call it up and populate it with my data? If there is I would appreciate a hint as I cannot find how to create it in this version of Word. (French Office XP)
Hopefully yours
