Found the problem. Changed my 32 bit colors to 16. Can see the pictures
now. Must have happened when I upgraded to a 17" screen.

You might get a better answer on a newsgroup that supports Word.

More and more people seem to be using the `.doc` format for pictures,
like
the pdf format seems to be coming more and more popular. It's no good
saying
to people "don't use it".
As usual, my question *hasn't* been answered. So I suppose I have to
say
thanks for nothing :-)

The problem is that you shouldn't be using WORD to send and view
pictures.
Get the person who sends you the pictures to send them in a proper
image
format, such as JPG. Then you have a vast range of good viewers
available
to you, many of them free, such as -

O.K. Ron :-)
Any idea what the problem might be then?
