How can i get my digital camera pic to show up in my document?

Question

I have a digital camera. I downloaded the pics from the camera to a folder in "my pictures". When i copy and paste the pics from the folder onto a microsoft word document, instead of showing me the pic in the middle of my document it shows me the stupid icon! A jpg icon won't do me any good. I don't know why it didn't copy the actual pic. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any advice!

Haven't used Word in a while but if memory serves, you have to insert an object from the edit pulldown menu. At that point you will see a dialog bow in which you shall select the from file option. Double check the Help section to validate this and it will also tell you how to resize the image, dock it on the page, set word wrapping, etc.
