Gloria sent me a WMF file. I took a Win2K machine without Frame and installed it from CD, and WMF worked okay. Then I installed the first patch, and the WMF would not import. I installed the second patch, and it still would not import. 

I tried it on a Mac with both patches, and it worked ... sort of ... the console reported "ImageMark Error : Error encountered during import; error is 0. Cancelling import" six times! But it came in okay. 

The WMF crashes Mac Illustrator 10.0.3, and Windows Illustrator 10.0.3 says "The MPS parser is unable to parse the file." 

Word 98 for Mac and Word 2000 for Windows both work okay. 

So it seems that that the WMF is not trouble-free, but the Frame patches are less forgiving.
