I have a picture on cd, can I clip art it into a word document?

That is your problem. Word wants a .jpg (or other format), not a Paint Shop
Photo Album picture. Can you ask your friend to send you a different format?
That one will not work.

When I try to insert into my document, a screen comes up that says
"file

readable. __ windows default ___ ms-dos ___ other encoding.
Then
the picture is just gobbledy gub.

Can I load the picture into a Word document?

One other option:

Download Corel Photo Album's trial version. You might be able to do what you
need with that.
