Our documents have way too many graphics. Why do we have screen

those tasks that inform, instead of verifying them.

I am not sure about that Gary. Most of our users might complain of too
few graphics but never of too many ones.
Here's a set of instructions from a third-party source for an older MSO
topic. Did the absence of graphics make this any or much less
understandable? Or, OTOH, would you have preferred some graphics? If so,
where in the following?
Method 2
*Alternatively:*
1. Select *Tools | Options*; and on the *File Locations* tab,
double-click on “User Templates” (or single-click on “User
Templates” and choose “Modify”).
* If you are using Word 2000 or earlier versions, this dialog
displays the path in which your custom templates are stored
(where it says “Folder Name”). Press *Ctrl + C *to copy the
path, and close the dialog.
* If you are using Word 2002, finding the path has been made
unnecessarily difficult, because the “Folder name” box in
the “Modify location” dialog shows a blank. One way to get
the complete path is to click the down arrow on the “Look
in” box, which will display the folder tree. You can then
copy down the path by hand and type it into the "File name"
box in the File Open dialog. An easier way to get the path
is to select Properties on the Tools menu in that dialog.
Drag across the path shown on the General tab and press
*Ctrl + C* to copy it. You can then paste it into the File
Open dialog.
2. Select *File | Open (*or press* Ctrl+O)*; and in the Open dialog:
* If you are using Word 2000 or earlier versions, press
*Ctrl+V* to paste the path you copied earlier, then press
*Return*. This takes you straight to the right folder.
* If you are using Word 2002, browse to the folder you noted
down previously.
3. Where it says “Files of Type,” you may need to select “Document
Templates (*.dot)” in order to see Normal.dot
* Open the file called Normal.dot (depending on how you've
configured Windows Explorer, it may just display as
“Normal”, without showing the extension).
* Once you have opened Normal.dot, delete the text in it, save
the file and close. The next time you press New you should
get a /Blank/ Document.
