Embedding a screenshot to reduce the size in word is a BAD IDEA!

The better way:
convert the (big because uncompressed) .bmp into a compressed image 
format like PNG or TIFF (and no: I wouldn't recommend JPG for screenshots).
There are a lot of free image converters for windows, linux and macos.
(I use gimp, pbmtools and Imagemagic on Linux and IrfanView on Windows)
