Anchoring graph with certain text

[bass121]

I am completing a document in Word (2007) that contains graphs and text. Whenever I add text the graphs jump out of position. How can I anchor the graphs with the text?

Hi bass21,

The safest way is to keep the graphs formatted as in-line with text until you've finished editing the text. Then you can (relatively) safely change them to whatever floating format you want, preferebaly starting from the front of the document. As you do this, you can lock each picture's anchor to a particular paragraph and tell Word where to position the image on the page and whether it should move with the text. The latter option might be useful if the layout of a particular page is liable to change as the wrapping of successive images on that page is liable to affect the overall layout for that page. All these options are available va to Picture Tools tab when an image is selected.

Thanks Paul. I will do as you suggest.
