SYMPTOMS
When you post a blog that contains an image from Microsoft Office Word 2007 to a blog provider by using the MetaWeblog API, you receive the following error message:

Word is unable to publish the pictures in this post. The most likely cause of this problem is that your provider does not support uploading pictures. Contact your provider and try again, or choose a different picture provider.



CAUSE
This issue occurs because of a problem in the way that Word 2007 uses the newMediaObject API. The newMediaObject API includes the following code. metaWeblog.newMediaObject (blogid, username, password, struct) According to the newMediaObject API, the blogid parameter should be of type string. Word 2007 incorrectly uses integer as the type for the blogid parameter.



WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, use other code to post the blog. You may be able to search the Internet for code examples that can be used in your situation. For example, perform a search for &quot;newMediaObject&quot; and &quot;Word&quot; for possible code samples.
