SUMMARY
When you attempt to insert images that you have previously saved on your hard disk into a Microsoft Works Word Processor document (or a Works Database form), you may find that they do not appear in the Works Insert Clip Art Wizard. Works 6 installs the Works Insert Clip Art Wizard; Works 6 does not use Microsoft Clip Gallery. Even when Microsoft Clip Gallery is installed on your computer, you cannot access its clip art with the Works Insert Clip Art Wizard.

It is possible to use pictures and images in a Works document or database that are not accessible with the Works Insert Clip Art Wizard. You can insert a picture from a picture file, or you can insert a picture from the Microsoft Clip Gallery as an object.



MORE INFORMATION
To insert a picture into a Works Word Processor document from a picture file, follow these steps:
 * 1) Start Works Word Processor.
 * 2) On the Insert menu, point to Picture, and then click From File.
 * 3) In the Insert Picture dialog box, browse to find the picture file that you want.

TIP: To preview the picture file without first inserting it into the Works Word Processor document, click to select the Enable preview check box.
 * 1) Click Insert.

To use images from Microsoft Clip Gallery (which was installed with Works Suite 2000 or Microsoft Office 2000) in a Works Word Processor document or a Works Database form, follow these steps:

NOTE: Use similar steps to insert a picture into a Works Database form.
 * 1) Start Works Word Processor.
 * 2) On the Insert menu, click Object.
 * 3) Under Object Type, select Microsoft Clip Gallery.
 * 4) Click OK.
 * 5) Select the picture that you want, and then click Insert clip.
