==============================
Try these steps...

Right click the cell you want a picture in.

From the menu...choose...Format Table /
Colors and Lines tab...

Open the Fill drop window and choose...
Fill Effects / Picture tab / Select Picture button...

Browse to the picture you want to insert and
double left click it. Check the box..."Lock Picture
Aspect Ratio" / OK / OK.

The picture will be cropped if it doesn't fit in
the cell. This could be corrected by cropping the
picture to the size of the cell before you import
it or by resizing the cell.

Default pictures in table cells

I may have stumbled across something that works.
First, you said to

"Right click the cell you want a picture in."......"Browse to the picture
you want to insert and
double left click it. Check the box..."Lock Picture
Aspect Ratio" / OK / OK."


I am only able to do this when I click on an existing picture, not a cell.
The picture tab is now accessible.
So under the insert menu I inserted a new picture. Publisher threw it
somewhere on the page. I moved it the approximate areaThen I did the Table,
Format, fill.....Inline and it aligned itself with a row and moves with that
row.
So I am able to do it now. Just not the way I interpreted your directions.

Thank you,
