Mac Forum / Applications / Word / May 2008"Insert -> Picture -> From File" fails, but dragging and dropping same file works!
This is an odd one. Attempting to insert an image using the "Insert -> Picture -> From File" menu option *always* fails for me ("This application cannot open this file..."). However, all is not lost because dragging and dropping the same image file from Finder into the document works fine... !?!?!? Michael Foord http://www.ironpythoninaction.com/ Hi Michael - You've encountered a known glitch for which there is a simple workaround until we get a fix:-) When you Insert an image make sure the Styles section of the Formatting Palette is not expanded at the time, switch to a different Palette in the Toolbox or turn the Toolbox off altogether before Inserting. There's a conflict between the Styles section & the Quick Styles & Effects section that's trying to replace it as the Toolbox updates.
