1.Paste Special , Paste link as Picture (enhanced metafile)

Hallo,

One of my colleague wants to paste excel table  in word.

He select the cell and use paste special in Word , paste link and would like 
to  paste as Picture(Enhanced Metafile).

But Picture(Enhanced Metafile option is missing in word.  He only gets 
Graphic (windows metafile)

We are using Office 2003. He told this option was avalaible in Office XP 2002.

Any idea, how to get this option in Word 2003?

2.Paste Special: Metafile vs Enhanced Metafile

What's the difference between Picture (Windows Metafile) and Picture 
(Enhanced Metafile) in the Paste Special options? Is there a good rule as to 
when to use one over the other?

At a quick look for pasting Excel sheets, they seem the same, but I'd guess 
that's just because Excel sheets don't have any fancy graphics, gradients, 
etc. But that's just my guess. Perhaps Windows Metafile is fine for basic 
shapes and Enhanced Metafile is better for advanced vector images?

Thanks,
Colin 

3.Macro for Paste Special - Picture (Enhanced Metafile)

Hello!  I am trying to set up a macro (key command alt+ctrl+p) that will 
perform the following command: Paste Special - Picture (Enhanced Metafile).  
I tried recording a macro to do this, and it came up with this:

Sub PasteMetafile()
'
' PasteMetafile Macro
'
'
   Application.Run MacroName:="Normal.Module2.EditPasteSpecial
End Sub

When I try to run it, it takes me to the "Paste Special" screen that pops 
up, but it doesn't select Picture (Enhanced Metafile) for me.  I found this 
code from someone else:

AppWord.Selection.PasteSpecial Placement:=wdInLine, 
DataType:=wdPasteMetafilePicture

...but it gives me Error 424 "Object required."

How can I make it specifically choose Picture (Enhanced Metafile)?

Just FYI, I have another macro set up already that tells Word whenever I use 
Paste Special to paste everything as inline rather than floating.

Thank you!

4.Paste Special Enhanced Metafile

Just a quick query that is proving to be infuriating. 

I have a pdf file that I need to copy in excess of 40 seperate charts/tables 
out of and paste into Word/Powerpoint. From the pdf I am picking up the area 
that is needed to be copied using the snapshot tool and then pasting as an 
enhanced metafile into Word or Powerpoint.

However, colleagues have no problem with this process but there is some real 
inconsistency on the availability of the enhanced metafile paste option when 
I do it. For instance, I can snapshot the same graphic three times and on the 
third attempt to paste as an enhanced metafile it works, but on the two 
previous attempts I'm not presented with this option.

Is there a reason for this inconsistency and can I amend this somehow?

Many Thanks

5.Editing a Table Pasted from Excel into Word as a Picture (Enhanced Metafile)

Hi:

I am copying a section of an Excel Spreadsheet, and then pasting into
word using Paste Special -> Picture (Enhanced Metafile)

When I right click on the object in word, one of the menu choices is
"Edit Picture" This will allow me to change text in the picture, which
seems to be included through the use of text boxes.  I make a minor
change that is required, but then I cannot seem to revert the image or
picture back to its previous form, which seems to be as a normal
picture file that has been inserted.  The only way I can figure out
how to do this is by using the undo command, but I loose my text
chance.  If the picture stays in the new, editable format, whenever I
click into it, all of the text is becomes highlighted, which really
slows down my ability to continue work on the rest of the document.
The new format seems to be seen by word as a Drawing Canvas.

Does anyone know how I can make a text change, and then get Word to
see the image as an inserted picture file again as opposed to this
drawing canvas?

Thanks,
Brooks
