ALT Comments on images using Corel Draw. How to do it?

 Hello. I have read that it is very important to include the ALT comment on every image of a website, in order to help the searchers' crawlers robots etc. Then I tried to do it at Corel Draw: I clicked on an image, then on Properties and then on the Web options. However, the ALT comment`s field seems to be locked, or disabled. Even if I click on that lock icon bellow (which I don't know why it is for) and open it, the text field is still disabled. It only turns "able" or "writeable" (sorry for my Engligh...) if I choose a page to link to through the URL option, but I do not want the image to link to any page at all, I just want to add the ALT comment to it.

Does anybody know how to do it?

Thanks!

    Yes... don't use Draw as web editor - it is not one. Learn HTML + CSS and
    use a real web editor, then you can do the things you keep asking about.
    Sorry to be blunt, but you will only find frustration if you use a graphics
    app to try and write HTML.
  •  You can add alternate text to to an image tag like so:

    IMG SRC="mypicture.jpg" ALT="this is my picture"

    It all goes into one tag.
