Default Bit complex

The document is populated with special tags, then an included VBA script is run to create essentially a HTM version of the document

Which is uploaded to a remote folder

When the system (An online claims system) is being used by a user and want a report, they click a button and the system reconstructs the Word document, but this time with all the field data populated from the system.

The front page of reports (including header/footer/logos) contains auditable information and has to be locked from user editing

There are two bits of Word code in the document currently. One updates the SAVEDATE with 'today's' date and another checks to see if the Filename starts "DRAFT..." and, if so displays DRAFT in a text box behind the report text.

So, these bits of code work and in the locked sections, probably because the document has just been created and saved, which updates the fields

That's why I was hoping the "IncludePicture' field would be more flexible
