Re: Missing Graphics File

Elizabeth,

As you know, your problem is that Frame thinks the .eps files have moved or
that the Frame file (the into which someone imported the eps file(s)) has
moved. You do not need to locate and delete the now missing .eps file. *IF*
you're certain that you do not want the now hiding .eps files, try the
following:

1. Open the Frame file.
2. Choose the ignore all missing files option.
3. Click continue.
Frame should open the file. When it does, you should see an anchored
frame(s) with a grayed out text box.
4. Delete the frame.
5. Save the file and try re-opening the Frame file.
The newly saved Frame file should open without any difficulty.

I've used this method before.
