I simply used a two-column table, without changing your two-column page layout, with the numbers in the left cell and the images in the right cell - formatted as inline. To add more questions, simply go to the last cell and press the TAB key to create a new row.

The reason the sheet I uploaded doesn't have two columns is simply that the version with both columns filled was too big to upload! I deleted jpgs until the doc fit the size limit
I dramatically reduced the file size by allowing Word to compress the images.

Ok that's working great. It's especially helpful not to have to reformat the jpg every time.

Two new problems, though: I forgot to mention that there will be some text boxes with instructions scattered throughout the worksheet. Please see attached for an example.

The way I did it on the sample doc works fine until I try to create a two-column table in the second column. Then everything jumps all around, magically repositioning itself nowhere near where I want it.

1) Is there a way to incorporate these instruction boxes into the column structure? (The potential problem I see is that I want an outline around the instruction box as shown, but not the rest of the tables.)

2) How do you create the tables in the second column? Copy paste didn't work for me (just added cells to the existing table) & adding a table on the right, as I mentioned, automatically and for no apparent reason repositioned the text box intended for the left-hand column into the right-hand column.
