OK, I see this now in Word 2007. The problem you described is repeatable 
by changing the text wrapping around a linked picture from Inline. The 
linked picture I did this with immediately rebuilt itself with the right 
hand part of the picture showing up on the left hand side. Yow.

If you look under the covers at what the Insert > Picture > Link does to 
insert a linked picture, you can see that it is designed for Inline text 
only. If you're familiar with the INCLUDEPICTURE field, it is still 
available, but I haven't tested it for right operation yet.

I don't envy you. How about letting me know if you need a solution?
