One of the nastiest holes in WFW6 is the inability to do a
"floating frame." It should be possible to make a frame (which may contain a
figure, table, text, or just space) and have it appear in the first available
space after the reference, with text flowing continuously.
I have been asking Microsoft for this since WFW1.
EVERYONE should contact Microsoft at 206-936-WISH (voice) or 206-936-7329
(fax) or 1 Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052.

BTW, tables in frames don't work right either, but that's a known bug.
