Does anyone remember Microsoft Photo Editor. Trying to get photos, screen captures, any graphic out of Word using everything I have learned over 16 years being a technical writer never worked. One day I happened to be on one of the old computers at my home and Microsoft Photo Editor was installed, so I put the Word file on the old computer, opened it, copied a graphic from it into Photo Editor by selecting Edit then Past as New Image in Photo Editor and VOILA, I could save as .BMP, .JPG, etc with NO QUALITY LOSS. I use the method to this day. Hope everyone finds this helpful. Rick

Thanks for all the helpful info!
