The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 6.0, 6.0a

The "Word for Windows User's Guide," version 6.0, incorrectly states on page 598 that selecting Picture Placeholders will disable in-place editing of embedded objects:

   Word cannot display the WordArt of Equation Editor toolbars and menus if
   you have selected the Picture Placeholders option...

Editing a embedded object is possible even if you have Picture Placeholders selected.

(To locate the Picture Placeholders option, choose Options from the Tools menu, then select the View tab.)
