Presumably you have forgotten to load the graphicx package. Specific help is only possible with a true minimal example along with its complete log file.

If you are struggling with these basics, I recommend to take a look at our list with resources for novices [1]. At the moment it is not possible to help you without seeing the code that causes the problem.

The tutorial helped me to some extent however I can only get it to output to
dvi format and not pdf.
