Just selected the file from the file browser using the default file type of "all inkscape files".
Until you pointed it out just now I never even noticed that there were two wmf options in the "files of type" pull down list. The first one behaves as I described in post 1. The second wmf selection in the "files of type" list drops all of the text. After import there are a bunch of "path####" objects but no "text####" objects.
