Global command for converting linked graphics to embedded?

I am using Word 2007 on a Windows XP SP3 platform.

I thought I posted this question a couple of hours ago, but I cannot find it
now. I apologize if this is a repeat.

1. I use Remote Desktop Connection to connect to a workstation in a
different state.

2. I use a different authoring tool to create a document, then publish that
document to Word.

3. When I open the Word document on the remote desktop, it contains all
screen captures and graphics as it should.

4. I copy the Word document from the remote desktop, and save it to a
"public" server (on a corporate WAN inside the firewall).

5. I close the Remote Desktop Connection application.

6. From my own local workstation, I navigate to the public server, copy the
Word file, and paste it on my local workstation's hard drive.

7. I open the local version of the Word document, and it does not contain a
single screen capture or graphic.

I surmise the screen captures and graphics must have been linked somewhere
in the remote location.

Is there a way I can open the original Word document in the remote location,
and use a global command to embed the graphics, so that they are always
included in the document regardless of where it might be relocated?

Thank you for your help.

I have seen your question three times already.
