I'm glad nobody's told MY copy of PowerPoint that.  WMFs from Draw (or any
other program) will not be usable by some versions of PowerPoint *if* they
don't include the Placeable Metafile header.  Draw gives you this option;
export WMF with the header and they should be fine in PPT.

Both PowerPoint and Word have had a history of wonky dealings with EPS
files.  Depending on the version and rev you're using, either one may or
may not print the header instead of the EPS itself.
