Meh, I said all I wanted. I hope this post helps other people in my situation. I do a few spot color layouts in InDesign daily and I always use Microsoft's collection because its free and easy to search. I have 12cd package too but I'm too lazy to open it sometimes.

I don't like opening WMF in Illustrator because a lot of the time it opens incorrectly, it sort of opens not in proportion. Pasting in a Microsoft app, then to Illustrator, is always done without error.

Everyone's got their own way of doing things. For example Joe would rather rasterize the image than find another solution. Or he'd print to PDF from Publisher rather than copy/paste to Illustrator, but whatever, its all the same to me.

Keep flaming guys, you're doing a great job. I'm hoping InDesign CS3 includes this as a feature.

If any of you would like to try this yourself, here is a link for a sample file. It was WMF but I saved as AI for your convenience.
