How do I scan a photo from my printer/scanner to my computer with Windows 7

and Microsoft Office 2007. I could do it on my old computer.
 
Why not use the scanner software that came with the printer/scanner?

The Help in Office 2007 seems clear:



"The From Scanner or Camera option for scanning documents and pictures

is not available in Microsoft Office Word 2007. Instead, you can use

your scanner to scan the document, and then you can save the file to

your computer."

Use MS Office>MS Office Tools>MS Office Documents Scanning
 
Please reply to the OP, not to me, though perhaps you should check

first to see if your information is correct.

(There is no such shortcut as MS Office Documents Scanning in my

Office 2007 as you suggest)

Sorry, just clicked reply on wrong message but I will continue here

where the OP can also see:



I am using 64 bit Win 7 with MS Office S&T 2007 and some of Pro 2003

installed.



I have both "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\MODI\

.... :

from 2003: ... \11.0\MSPSCAN.EXE"

from 2007: ... \12.0\MSPSCAN.EXE"



Start > All Programs > MS Office > MS Office Tools > MS Office Documents

Scanning results in the 2003 version running.



Selecting ... >MS Office Tools > MS Office Document Imaging and in that

program select File > Scan New Document which runs the 2007 scanning

version.
