I cannot see a picture I add to my Publisher document

When I add a picture or clip art to a Publisher 2003 document it will not
display. I can see the picture in graphic manager but not in the document. If
I create a PDF all my pictures and clip are are there. No problem with text.

BobG was very recently heard to utter:

Try View Pictures Detailed Display.

If this fails, this is almost certainly a problem with your video driver.

By going to Display Properties Settings Advanced Troubleshoot, and
dragging the Hardware Acceleration slider down three notches, you will be
able to disable Publisher from making the calls on the video driver that
cause this problem.

If this does fix your problem, it means that the problem does indeed lie
with the video driver. You can leave your computer running at this lower
hardware acceleration, but it may cause problems with other programs. It is
a better solution to try and find a driver update for your graphics card.
Normally, the latest drivers from the video card manufacturer will do the
trick, but ATI (and recently Intel and Dell) tend to be slower in perfecting
their drivers, so some newer ATI and Intel cards to not yet have drivers
available that do not exhibit this behaviour. The solution here is to nag
ATI/Intel/Dell for better drivers.

(Please note that even if your computer is brand new, you won't necessarily
have the latest drivers)

I ended up reinstalling Publisher and can now see the pictures and clip art.
The problem started when I installed Adobe Creative Suite 2. I had CS and did
not have a problem with Publisher until upgrading to CS2. Think the CS2
installed corrupted something that Publisher needed. Thanks for the help
