images not showing in saved documents

Hello -

When I open an image and insert it into a .doc document, the image does not
appear when it is opened by the recipient. Also, when I open the file on my
computer after saving, the image disappears, but the size of the file
retains the image information. Attached is an example.

Can you please inform me of why I am experiencing this? I have checked by
"view" settings under tools>options, so that is not the problem. I have
also spent a few hours reading the forums and help sections.

Thanks,

Matt

In OpenOffice check that your images are embedded, not linked. /Edit /Links to switch them from linked to embedded.
