I am running Word 2003 in XP.  I have a document that has
quite a few images embedded in it.  When I open the
document, all I see are field codes for each image.  All
I see are a series of {EMBED PSP6.IMAGE}, one for each
image.  I don't want to see the field codes but I want to
just see the images.  In normal view I tried ALT-F9 and
SHIFT-F9 but nothing changes.  I even tried other views.  
At one point in time I somehow right-clicked on one of
them and then clicked on "Toggle Field Codes" in the menu
that came up.  The picture appeared instead of the
embedded link.  I am embarrased to say that now, try as I
might, I can't get the right-click menu to contain
the "Toggle Field Codes" option. And I can't see the
other pictures.  What do I do to get the field codes
toggled?  Thanks for your help with this.

Alt+F9 should toggle the display of field codes unless that has been
re-assigned to something else.  You can turn off the display of field codes
by selection Options from the Tools menu and then View and uncheck the Field
codes box.

Hi Bob,

Well, Tools/Options/View should let you do that, but it's
sure "the long way around"...

The only cause I've heard of that suppresses the keyboard
shortcuts is having one of the Adobe Addins loaded. If you
start Word in Safe Mode (hold down Ctrl, then start it up)
does the behavior persist?
