Putting a picture in a table (Word 97) Solved/Closed

Question

Hello,

I'm using Word 97.  I'm writing some instructions, using a table to format them, step, by step.
I want to put an image in one of the steps (to illustrate what the user should see on the screen), but everytime I try to paste it into the table, it appears outside the table.  I can't get it to stay within the correct cell. 

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks

when you paste the picture,

right-click on the picture

add picture toolbar

select text wrapping

an position the picture!

Once you insert a picture inside a table you have to right-click on it, select "Format Picture" and under the "Layout" tab select "In Line With Text".
