Time to get off that high horse of your's Jerry.  While it is very useful that you (and a couple of others here) have posted a workaround to put an older version of OPM from Sharepoint 2010 into our later released MS Office builds, what these people are saying is that it is a very poor decision by Microsoft to have removed it from their Office Suite in the first place.  What we would all like to see is an up to date version of Office Picture Manager in the Office 2013 or Office 365 products.  

Saying that "absolutely NOBODY knows how to go back one page" is tantamount to telling us that we are all stupid because you have had to post your response 17 times" when it's obvious that some at least have taken your advice (if you check, you will see that I and others gave you kudos for your workaround).  You would be better served by taking a more reserved and helpful tone before you start to look like someone who is on a bit of a rant.  

Don't get me wrong, your advice is VERY helpful ... just tone it down a bit so the newbies get your message rather than an attitude. After all, the problem here is really one of Microsoft's making, and I, like you and many others here, can't understand why MS can't simply add OPM back to the suite or offer it as an up to date additional download.

More kudos to you Jerry :)

Ok point taken.

It's late enough in the year that Microsoft is probably about to release the next version anyway... so for the few still fighting this hopefully they will learn to read the posts. (Try researching a CNC issue in a machining forum... sometimes you go back 2 or 3 YEARS.)

Anyway... yeah, real idiotic move on Microsoft's part to tout Picture Manager as the end-all do-all graphics conversion package, get it to the top of virtually EVERY search engine... then just go, "Eh" and not include it just because the "look" of the program doesn't match the current "feel".

Frankly... I don't care what it looks like if it works. And additionally... they could have assigned it to a team and had it re-skinned in a couple of days honestly.

Then... the first couple of posts when this whole thread started... "Use Microsoft Word"... I was like... are they on drugs? Totally missed the point of a batch process. It's like the departments just completely do not communicate.

I hear tell they are gearing up to do major revisions to VBA... they have already botched up the Dialogue box... you have to do some hokey work-around using the IE interface... if they botch it to where the VBA routines fail... there are going to be a HUGE number of companies either refusing to upgrade, or flat dropping the package. (I had to rework about 40 spreadsheets and redo the interfaces... I can't imagine some larger companies.)

I hope they actually start to take notice to forums like this... seriously.
