8656 2001-02-13 01:54:00 I am frustrated in my attempts to position photos exactly where I'd like them to be in Word documents.
I've tried resizing (by dragging a corner) the frame, which is how it's done on my prehistoric Acorn computer, but this distorts the picture.
Any suggestions?
OS is Win 95 and the Word program is version 1.0
P.S: How do I tell which version of Win 95 is installed on my computer?

Right click on the picture, choose 'Format picture'. Click the 'Size' tab. Make sure the 'Lock Aspect Ratio' is ticked then change the width or height %.
Cheers, Sharrea.

Cut,Copy, Paste,Font, Bullet Style,Paragraph, Object Properties and (greyed out) Picture Object. None of which allow me to manipulate the photo. All the options at the top of the Wordpad Document lead nowhere also (with regards to resizing frames).
Perhaps this program is just simply too darn old to cope!
Cheers
Lynne
