Is there any way to make "tight" the default format for inserting pictures in
VISTA? I have windows VISTA home edition. I changed to TIGHT as suggested
(WORD OPTIONS, Advanced, Cut,Copy andPaste), but when I cut and paste a
picture from a web site to a word document it still does not format to TIGHT.
WHY?

I am trying to set the default for picture pasting to 'tight' using Office
2007 and Windows XP.
I have followed the instructions above - button/word options/ advanced/
cut... and set it to tight.
But when I past a picture it still pastes it in line with text.
I have closed and re-opened word, and the problem remains.
when I go back into button etc, it is set to tight, it just doesn't work
that way.
Is there a solution?

Hi S.B.,

When you paste a picture then right click and check Text Wrapping is it showing as 'inline' ?

The option setting is stored in the registry. Is this a home or work computer? It;s It's possible that you don't have user profile
permissions to make the modification so that it sticks beyond the current session, or that the registry key that stores the
information is damaged or that an add-in is overriding the change either on closing or starting Word.

If you start word, use
Office Button=>Word Options=>Advanced=>Cut, copy and paste
and set Insert/paste picture as Tight, then type a space in the blank document then close Word (without saving the document) then
restart Word what is the setting for that option?

If it did not stick, try going to
Office Button=>Word Options=>Trust Center=>Addins and
turn on the choice disable all addins, restart Word and try to stick the choice again, then restart Word and turn the add-ins back
on.

Thanks Bob.
It seems as though changing the options track works, and it sticks the
setting there to 'tight' between Word sessions. Sadly, when I paste an
image, it does not obey this setting, but pastes it as 'in line with text'.
Is that very very strange?
To answer your questions:

Yes it shows a 'inline' when I paste in an image.
My computer is a work one.
As I said above the setting sticks, but the program doesn't obey it i.e. in
a new session of Word, doing the button route, the cut and paste is still set
at tight. However, in a new document, if I paste in an image, and right
click it, its text wrapping is inline.

I hesitate to try the 'add in' instructions, as I am not sure what the
problem is.
thanks
Susan
