Hi :)
There have been other useful responses.  I just wanted to say i find Anchor to 
page more useful and then if the paragraph moves or changes page then i just 
deal with it then.  I don't want images to jump around the page while i'm 
typign soemthing in or shifting text around.  I just need an idea of roughly 
how much space they are going to take up.  Finalising positions is one of the 
last jobs i tend to do.  

Obviously each of us prefers different work-flow and usually for good reasons 
that wouldn't suit someone else.  The trick is to find a way that suits you 
best given the tools you use.    
Regards from
Tom :)
