Thanks Paul for the great advice.
I have used the suggestions in this thread and your code to insert images and rotate them correctly.
However, one odd behaviour that I did notice was that from the second page onward, the first row would not rotate the image correct, even if its width exceeded its height. When controlling if that image was sucessfully steered through that particular If condition, it was reported. So I am sure that these images are not skipped but the rotation seems to fail. Do you have any suggestions why this could be the case?

Code:
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim i As Long, j As Long, c As Long, r As Long, NumCols As Long, iShp As InlineShape, Aspect As Boolean
Dim oTbl As Table, TblWdth As Single, StrTxt As String, RwHght As Single, ColWdth As Single
With ActiveDocument.PageSetup
  TblWdth = .PageWidth - .LeftMargin - .RightMargin - .Gutter
End With
On Error GoTo ErrExit


'NumCols = CLng(InputBox("How Many Columns per Row?"))
NumCols = 2
ColWdth = PointsToCentimeters(TblWdth / NumCols)
'ColWdth = CentimetersToPoints(CSng(InputBox("What max width for the pictures, in Centimeters (e.g. " & Format(ColWdth, "0.00") & ")?")))
ColWdth = CentimetersToPoints(CSng(8))
'RwHght = CentimetersToPoints(CSng(InputBox("What max height for the pictures, in Centimeters (e.g. 5)?")))
RwHght = CentimetersToPoints(CSng(11))
Aspect = RwHght > ColWdth
