Trish, I dunno about Freehand, but if you Select All of your illustration from
within Illustrator and do an Option-Copy, you will have a PICT which you can
then paste into your Scrapbook or whatever, and import into your Word document
from there.  If I recall correctly, you must use the pull-down menu to copy
with this trick--that is, I don't think option-cmd-C works.
