Microsoft Office is not designed for raster image manipulation work,  
and, if a friend "gave" you a copy, you should delete it since that's  
technically not allowed.

You can get all the needed capabilities with the open source  
OpenOffice.org anyway. And if you paste images into its Draw  
component, you can export them from there into many vector and raster  
formats including PNG and JPG, among others.
