How do I avoid wasting space with a large picture in my document? Alan Silver <alan-silver[ at ]nospam.thanx.invalid> 5/30/2007 3:41:52 PM Hello, I have a Word document (Word 2003 if it makes any difference), and I want to insert a flowchart that I created in PowerPoint as a picture. The flowchart is pretty much the full size of a sheet of paper. My problem is that if I insert the picture, it goes into the text where I inserted it. Normally this is exactly what I want, but in this case, I would prefer it if the text before and after the picture would move around to fill up the space before the picture, rather than leaving a (potentially) large amount of space on the last page before the picture. Can this be done? If so, how? I hope this is clear. If anyone has any ideas, I would be very grateful. TIA -- Alan Silver (anything added below this line is nothing to do with me)

Then you can move the graphics up or down the document and the text will reflow around it. -- Terry Farrell - MS Word MVP "Alan Silver" <alan-silver[ at ]nospam.thanx.invalid> wrote in message news:9udURDFAtZXGFwv8[ at ]nospamthankyou.spam...
