SUMMARY
If you cannot import a graphic image created in Micrografx Designer Plus OLE using the Insert Object command in Word, you may need to use one of the following workarounds:

Workaround 1

 * 1) In Designer Plus OLE, select the graphic and copy it to the Windows Clipboard.
 * 2) Switch to Word.
 * 3) From the Edit menu, choose Paste or Paste Special.

Workaround 2
From the Insert menu, choose Object. In the Object Type box, select Designer 3.1 Drawing and choose the OK button.

Note: If you select Picture, Bitmap, or Device Independent Bitmap in the Paste Special dialog box and then choose the Paste button instead of the Paste Link button, double-clicking the image in your Word document will open Microsoft Draw instead of Designer Plus OLE.

Workaround 3

 * 1) In Designer plus OLE, select the graphic, then choose Export from the File menu.
 * 2) Export the image using Micrografx Designer 3.0 format.
 * 3) Switch to Word, and insert the new graphic by selecting the Insert menu and choosing Picture. Select Micrografx Designer from the List Files of Type list box.
