Kim-- 

Just to make sure everything's clear: when you want to import a text file, tell the text object to place the file; when you want to enter a string into a text object, tell the text object to set its contents to the string. 

Telling a text frame to set its contents to a string of tagged text will result in the tagged text appearing--literally, tags and all--in the frame, because the tags have to go through the import (place) mechanism to be interpreted. If you simply set the contents of a frame to some string, you're not using the import filter. 

Thanks, 

Ole
