Double-Clicking Graphic Does Not Open Edit Picture Window

• Microsoft Word for Macintosh, versions 5.0, 5.1

SUMMARY

Sometimes you cannot open a graphic for editing in the Edit Picture window by double-clicking the graphic or by choosing the Picture button on the ribbon. This happens if the version 2.2 Ego for Word Plug-in Module (PIM) is installed in the Word Commands folder.

To avoid this problem, remove Ego for Word from the Word Commands folder.
