Tomi--

The forum archive should contain several solutions to this problem, but I can post it again. The trick is to tag a paragraph in the tagged text file with a particular paragraph style (name it something like "Image"), then set the text of that paragraph to the file path to the graphic you want to place. After you import the file, you can then (under scripting control) search for that paragraph style and replace the file path with the relevant graphic. Which platform are you using?

Thanks,

Ole
