I don't have the program Word on my computer.
And neither richtext nor wordpad has the ability/function to "apply" pictures/images to them.
That is, when I copy an internet site (either by ctrl + A, or mark everything with the mouse) it doesn't copy the pictures, as well.*
It's just the text, and weird little squiggly symbols with the stuff the program doesn't comprehend (of the copied site).
Are there any freeware-programs, or licenced-but-no-payment-programs that functions like Word, has the usual writing-program-stuff and all, but allows me to copy images, as well?
Thank you for your time.

instead of word you want openoffice
for saving pictures you have to right click on the picture and 'save as'
for saving websites you need to go to file and then choose save as complete website

the saving of pictures from the internet has nothing to do with your text editor. these things are unrelated.

Hi, big, thanks for the help.
However when I choose the "save as complete website"-function an error-message pops up, and basically says that I cannot save the page. Translated from swedish it says something in the lines of:
"An error occured when the site was supposed to save.
It couldn't save the website on the designated spot/place."
How does openoffice work? Where can I find it?
Thanks.

Might add that when I copy the image, or try to add it via wordpad, all I get is stuff like this:
"ëó1·ük€¤¼‡Ýàaøœ2-NlÆ0:²9õ6'¸=ê?¯ ¾ ßÍôWûp", etc ...
I'll admit, I'm quite worthless when it comes to the more 'advanced' stuff with computers.

just to elaborate, openoffice is a complete open source alternative to microsoft office, with a word processor, spreadsheet program, power point-style program, email, and more.
quite excellent.
if youre on mac, get neooffice, which is an osx port of open office.

sounds like an e-business document creation solution to me.

unless of course you were replying to roygbiv with that post, in which case you should use follow up more often because noone does!

To everyone who took the time: thanks. _____________________ roygbivcore: 1. yeah, why not, but I don't trust the internet. It has 'stolen' a couple of 'my' sites ("this site is not available"), to never give it back, and a back-up-copy is less likely to one day disappear.
2. I may read it whenever I want, I don't have to worry about "1.", and whereas a couple of sites require focus and attention, the buzz of internet is guaranteed to not give me the time I need.
_____________________ Hedphukerr, dog_belch: I'm not sure about the "e-business document creation solution", but merely saving the text of a site is not enough, as these sites has a few images that is as much part of the site as the text, or whatever.
_____________________ and 3. all this sound much more complicated than it is, I'm sure.
Any way, thanks.
