Hi Jennifer,

The basic rule for working with graphics in Word is to start at the top of the document and work your way down - after the text editing is finished. Trying to add text or relocate an image ahead of images that have already been positioned tends to generate more than its fair share of frustration, as changes in text flow impacts on the positioning of images lower down. Provided the text and images are to remain on the same page, locking the image anchor to the top of the page and unchecking the 'move with text' option does allow greater flexibility. The other thing you could try for a one-page document is to put all the images into the page header. That way, their positioning is unaffected by changes in text flow.
