If you mean that you get something that looks like:

{IMPORT C:\\PICTURES\\SAILBOAT.GIF\}

then you simply need to toggle the view field codes option, also you
want draft view off, page view off, and show all (which is the * button in
the ribbon) off.

Have you tried printing the file as it is, after you import the graphic?

If the name of the file you were trying to import is not in the field,
then you have some other problem....
