Open the image file you wish to add to wordpad using a program called Paint.

1. Highlight the image by pressing CTRL+A

2. Copy the image by pressing CTRL+C

3. Return to your wordpad document and paste the image by pressing CTRL+V

More Details:

The program 'Paint' is in Windows XP, etc and is enabled via Control Panel/Add or Remove Programs/Add or Remove Windows Programs icon, then scroll to MS Paint.

Instead, can simply use ALT & 'Print Screen' keys to capture the displayed window in active application. Can even capture entire display - "Print Screen'.

(WARNING - can end up with very large WordPad files.)

And then simply use EDIT/Paste in WordPad.
