This is a step-by-step guide on how to take a picture from the internet and put it into a word document on Microsoft Word, without having to save the image first. You know that your computer mouse has two different buttons on it, a left and right button. Well, to copy and paste you will have to use than right mouse button. You have searched pictures on the internet adn you have found a picture that you like. A good site to search for images is Google. So, you found a picture that you like and you want to put it into a word document, like Microsoft Word:

1. Put your mouse pointer over the picture
2. Click the right mouse button on your mouse (a little list should pop up next to the mouse pointer)
3. Move your mouse over the word copy on that little pop up. (Do not move your mouse pointer to far away from the pop up because it will disappear)

You have just copied the picture. You can now either close the internet or just minimize it, which ever you choose to do. What you need to do now is open Microsoft Word. Once you have that open you are ready to paste the picture that you have copied.

1. On the white area in the middle click the right mouse button on your mouse. (the same pop up should appear again.
2. This time you need to move your mouse pointer over the word paste and click on it.
3. Your picture from the internet should have appeared in that white area.

Troubleshoot:

1. Try to copy and paste it again
2. Close Microsoft Word and open it again and then recopy and paste the image.
3. If all else fails, restart your computer and do the whole process over agian. That will fix alot of problem that you have with your computer, if they have been on for a long period of time. Restarting your computer also refreshes it and resets some of the setting. This makes the basic and simple things work again, like copy and paste.

I hope this has helped you.

Uses:

1. Copy and paste pictures into a report or document.
2. Put a picture into a story you are writing.
3. Put a picture into a spreadsheet.
4. Just for fun
