When I look at the Print Preview, I can see it there, but in the regular view
the picture doesn't show. It did when I first started using, but I must have
changed a setting somewhere......thanks in advance for any help!

In Tools > Options > View, check "Drawing objects" and uncheck "Picture
placeholders".

A few things to try:
1. In Word, if you're working in Normal view, then switch to
Print Layout view (View | Print Layout), because objects that are
formatted as "float over text" (Word 97) or as something other
than "inline with text" (Word 2000, 2002, and 2003) are not
visible in Normal view.
2. In Word, click on Tools | Options | View tab | check the
"Drawings" box and uncheck the "Picture placeholders" box | Print
tab | check the "Drawing objects" box | OK.
3. If neither of the previous suggestions fixes the problem,
then try reducing or turning off hardware acceleration in Start |
Control Panel | Display | Settings | Advanced | Troubleshoot. If
this fixes the problem, then you might want to check the website
of the manufacturer of your video card/graphics adapter to see if
there is an updated driver available.
