Hmmmmmmm, 

EMF? Electro Motive Force? OH! Enhanced Metafile! 

First things first: I reinstalled FM7 from scratch. .WMF files import ok. I then installed the patch p576 and OOOPS! import not OK. It seems I relied on incomplete information for earlier assertions of the graphic import being OK after the 576 patch. Apparently it was not. I apologize to all for this error. 

Conclusion: import is OK with clean install and breaks with the 576 patch. 

Now back to EMF: these work great!! and are just as clear as .wmf files. 

Conclusion: patch is broken, but there is a workaround. Thanks, Sean for suggesting this. 



P.S. Hmmmm Part deux: Double apologies to those offended by my "that's what makes this country so great" remark. It shoulda said "that's what makes the FORUM so great." Oh waiter, could I have the crow pie ala mode please. Thank you.
