Graphics in text boxes

Hello everybody,

I have been using text boxes frequently in Word 97, in particular for inserting and handling graphics. However, I have found that managing graphics with Word 2000 is not as easy. When I insert graphics into a text box in Word 2000, the inserted image does not fit automatically to the size of the text box, which is in contrast to Word 97. When I shift the text box, the image often stays at the old place.

So, what can I do to make handling of graphics in Word 2000 text boxes so comfortable as it was in Word 97 ???

Many thanks in advance!

Best regards,

krabatserb

Thank you for your suggestions. I the meantime, I have found out that the described problem only arises if I use Paste/Special in order to insert a graphic. With Paste, the image fits well into the box.

Best regards
