At first, Word had no problem reading the .wmf files I was needing to write my thesis. Last night, it could only read certain ones: I chalked that up to the fact that the other program couldn't import anymore, and apparently couldn't export anymore correctly (these programs are unrelated, on different computers). TOday, it can't read ANY of them, says I need a graphics filter that it says isn't installed. What is the deal here??? I need these files for my thesis and a presentation next week. I am running office 97 professional in Windows 98 SE.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Do you still have your Office97 CD? If so, you may want to back up your documents, etc., and uninstall O97 and then reinstall it. If someone else can tell you how to recopy the wmf filter back to its directory, that would be easier, but I haven't use O97 in a while. My recommendation is O2KPro :) But not everyone has a couple hundred dollars...
