Just got a response -- it appears that this is another Word 97 bug that
necessitates installing the Microsoft Service Release (SR-1). SR-1 is
available on the Microsoft www site.
Perhaps this info will help others experiencing the same problem....

Subject: Disappearing graphics in Word?
I am on the PC using Word 97. I directly pasted a series of screen shots
into my doc, and they displayed properly. The next time I opened the doc --
they were replaced by a series of red Xs.
I've scanned the help and the knowledge bases and can't find any refs to
this -- has anyone run across this problem and found a fix? Wading through
the Microsoft tech support maze is always an extreme challenge, and I
haven't always gotten an answer.
thanks!
Susan
