Hi Dave,

If you search the archives, you should find examples of this.

Here is an insanely long link from a macro I posted doing something like
what you want.  The post date was 8/20/2002:
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=cgm+quentin+word+group:comp.soft-
sys.sas&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&group=comp.soft-
sys.sas&selm=15104802790BD411A2C100D0B73EA33C02CA3873%40remailnt3-
re01.westat.com&rnum=1

Anyway, in my case I used the ScaleX and ScaleY commands to increase the
size of the image after insertion.

Snippet from the macro:
      PUT '[InsertPicture .Name = "' "&inPath\&file" '"]';
      PUT '[CharLeft 1,1]';  *select graph to format;
      PUT '[FormatPicture .ScaleX = "235%", .ScaleY = "235%"]';
      PUT '[CharRight 1,0]'; *unselect and move pointer over;

Hope that helps,
