Inserting a graphic "Patrick Simonds" <ordnance1[ at ]comcast.net> 02.09.2006 18:27:59 I have a UserForm which is used to place text into a document based on user input, and the code looks like this: Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToBookmark, name:="Relationship" Selection.SelectCell Selection.Text = "Husband" What I want to do now is go to a Bookmark called Picture and have a picture (graphic) inserted at that point. I want the picture to display in front of any text. The path to the picture would look like: c:/My Documents/Pat.gif Any ideas out there?

Re: Inserting a graphic "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" <dkr[ at ]REMOVECAPSmvps.org> 02.09.2006 18:42:38 For the text, you should just use: ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Relationship".Range.InsertBefore "Husband" For the Graphic, use: ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Picture").Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture Filename:="c:/My Documents/Pat.gif" -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Re: Inserting a graphic "Patrick Simonds" <ordnance1[ at ]comcast.net> 02.09.2006 23:03:25 Thanks for your reply. Is there any way to set it so that the graphic displays in front of the text?

Re: Inserting a graphic Russ <drsN0SPAMmikle[ at ]hotmailD0Tcom.INVALID> 03.09.2006 00:06:22 Patrick, In front of what text? Do you want the picture to move text out of the way when inserting itself? Do you want text to cover up and not let text under it show through? Or is it the word "Husband" that gets destroyed when the picture is inserted into the bookmark that you want to keep? A watermark inserts behind text allowing text to show through, but a watermark is usually applied to the whole page.

Re: Inserting a graphic Russ <drsN0SPAMmikle[ at ]hotmailD0Tcom.INVALID> 03.09.2006 00:14:01 Oops, That third question should have been: Do you want the picture to cover up text and not let text under it show through?

Re: Inserting a graphic "Patrick Simonds" <ordnance1[ at ]comcast.net> 03.09.2006 00:47:06 I am looking for the equivalent of selecting In Front of Text.

Re: Inserting a graphic Russ <drsN0SPAMmikle[ at ]hotmailD0Tcom.INVALID> 03.09.2006 05:42:51 Patrick, Open the Word menu 'View | Toolbars-->Picture' to manipulate the picture you added with Doug's code. Select the picture. When you 'Format' the picture to something other than InLine With Text, the picture floats and isn't anchored as well as InLine. But with a floating picture, you can change the layer depth order. Record a macro while using that toolbar to alter the layer depth order to see the VBA code you can use for automation.
