Hi I have created a form for use by Job applicants.

I need applicants to insert their photographs into it. How can I do this?

Thanks and regards

You will need a macro that unprotects the document, then shows the
Insert>Picture dialog then reprotects the document. I would suggest that
you insert a bookmark at the place where you want the picture to be
inserted.

ActiveDocument.Unprotect
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Picture").Range.Select
Dialogs(wdDialogInsertPicture).Show
ActiveDocument.Protect

Signature

Hope this helps.

Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my

For a sample template that does this, download the form_picture item
from http://jay-freedman.info.
