Colors lost when pasting into Word

[Derek]

When I paste a Visio 2000 drawing into word, I loose the
fill colors. I have read the MS articles (292817 &
305331) dealing with this. These are not acceptable
solutions to me because 1) I don't want the entire
drawing and 2) the resolution of the GIF files created is
poor. After researching this, I have found that this
only happens when I select custom colors.

Does anyone know if this is fixed in later version of
Visio or have more standard colors at least been added?

Thanks,
