  • I followed your tip but now that the picture is hidden, the picture format tab is gone and I cannot find it without clicking on a picture. But the picture is hidden. How can i get the format picture tab without clicking on a picture?

  • I should have mentioned in my previous post - the restore link in the first paragraph above leads to an unrelated page.

  • This option does not work if you have inserted an image using the insert field includepicture option....
