hi,

i have an issue with pasteing an image out of a text box back onto a
word document and repositioning it on the document so i can select the
picture as a shape for copying into powerpoint.

every time i paste the copied image it overwrites the whole document.

any help would be appreciated.

For iCount = 1 To oDoc.Shapes.Count
           If oDoc.Shapes(iCount).Type = msoTextBox Then
               If
oDoc.Shapes(iCount).TextFrame.ContainingRange.InlineShapes.Count <> 0
Then
                   Clipboard.Clear

oDoc.Shapes(iCount).TextFrame.ContainingRange.InlineShapes(1).Select
                   m_objWord.Selection.Copy
                   iImgLeft = oDoc.Shapes(iCount).Left
                   iImgTop = oDoc.Shapes(iCount).Top
                   oDoc.Shapes(iCount).Delete
                   m_objWord.Selection.Collapse wdCollapseStart
                   oDoc.Content.PasteSpecial
placement:=wdFloatOverText
                   'odoc.Range.
                   m_objWord.Selection.InlineShapes(1).ConvertToShape
                   m_objWord.Selection.ShapeRange(1).Left = iImgLeft
                   m_objWord.Selection.ShapeRange(1).Top = iImgTop
               End If
           End If
       Next

cheers, Stu
