I have looked in the Pictures Toolbar list, found the "Insert File" command button ...

That's simply an alternative route to the same place as Insert | Picture > | From File... above.

I don't know why you need to do this. Buttons are where they are. But if you really need to:
o Go to Tools | Customise... | Toolbars.
o For Toolbar, select Standard.
o Click Add... .
o Under Category, select Insert.
o Under Commands, select From File.
o Click Add and Close.
o Use the arrow buttons to move the button around in the Standard toolbar as preferred.
o Click OK.

... nor can I get the Pictures toolbar to open at all.

Go to View | Toolbars > | Picture.

I trust this helps.
