I'm creating a web page from Word XP Pro. I inserted jpg's from the menu
Insert|Picture. Is there a way to tell Word to create and display the
thumbnail, and make the full picture available when the user clicks on the
thumbnail? This is a feature in Frontpage and I heard it was also avail in
Word?

Thanks, -Bob

Hi Bob:

1) Create the picture and the Thumbnail as separate files

2) Insert the thumbnail as normal in Word

3) Save the file as HTML

4) Edit the HTML and use View Source

5) Add the larger picture as a URL using the thumbnail as its anchor.

Cheers
