Hi Steve,

Yes, it does help. I went on a search and destroy mission which finally 
yielded that. And you confirm I got to the intended method.  I had an 
early version of Sigil that worked happily, but I though I should 
upgrade for advances.

However the old, in my opinion, had a far more logical and user friendly 
way of inserting graphics. It went 1. find the place where the image is 
wanted, 2. put the cursor there, 3. click the image icon, 4. choose the 
image from the Windows Explorer Window, 5. click OK - result image in 
place in the text and image in image folder.

This way is clunky to my thinking, and more complex. But I suppose I'm 
hard to please :-) .

Thanks for responding Steve.

Joseph
