Picture export to word in rtf format

[Rafale]

Problem:
I got a jpeg picture saved and I export it to a word document (under rtf format )in a table using:
"{\field{\*\fldinst { INCLUDEPICTURE " & pictname.jpg & " \\* MERGEFORMAT \\d }}}"
The picture is then linked to the document...
the thing is than the picture appears in the document but is too big...
Does anyone knows what i should write to reduce the size of the picture before exporting it ???
Thanks

'Objective - put several images into picture box and resize each image

Place several image boxes in a picturebox control. Set the Stretch property of each imagebox to true and
load your pictures in these image boxes.
Now, when you change the height and width properties of the imageboxes, the pictures will resize.
Changing the size with the mouse (and you would want resizing handles too), it is a bit more complicated...
Load your images in the two image boxes within the picture box.
There is a picture box. Within it are two image boxes with the images and eight labels for the handles.
You will have to work upon it to make it better.
