If you search back through the archives and/or visit the Frame user's
forum on Adobe.com, you'll see that this has been a pretty common
topic since Microsoft released SP3 for XP. They included some security
fixes to OLE that have effectively broken it, at least as far as
managing objects in Frame go.

Only reported fix is backing out of SP3.

Or you can convert the Visio objects to PDF, PNG, or other graphic
files and import them by reference.

May want to nag Microsoft some, if you think that would have an effect. ;- )

Of course, if you're not using XP and haven't installed SP3, something
else is at work, but I didn't see any system or FM version details in
your post. Which would be important in solving the problem if it is
something else.
