So suppose i cop a flag off WARFLAGS.
Now I want to rezixe it to 1.6 high x 3.60 wide

I know that I can do tha in WORD. But once I save the resized flag how can I move the image back into my flags folder.

I tried COPY but then PASTE never works.
So, how (in the simplest terms possible) do I get the image from WORD into my flag folder.

Or, better yet, is there a different program that I can use to rezize the flag (in inches) and move it back into the FLAGS folder?

Form a computer novice.

Just save the Word document with the flag.
You can produce a page with different flags and you know then where they will be on the paper when you print them.

I generally resize the flag when I print it. The quality is usually better through the printer software.

I wish to run the flag through another program before printing it. Therfore I need to copy and paste it into the flag folder somehow.

Saving it in WORD is of no help, but thanks anyway.

The flag is an image. So you need to save it as an image. You cannot copy and paste into a folder.

The easiest way is to open the Word document with the image in it and then open an image processing program such as Paint. I actually use XnView for this sort of thing. Copy and paste the flag image from Word to the image processing program. Save the image from the image program as a file (e.g. a jpg).
