Hi, Jenny:
Instead of selecting the frame, have you tried selecting the graphic
or the existing callout line by clicking on them, then pasting?

I have a document with a frame in which I import a graphic by reference.
I need two pointer lines to draw attention to two separate areas on that
graphic. Our style guide requires parallel pointer lines. Using the
Tools Palette, I draw one line to callout a field. I select that line
and press Ctrl+C to copy it. I then re-select the graphic frame (to make
sure the copied line ends up in the right frame and not floating
around), then press Ctrl+V to paste the copied line. Sometimes it works
fine, most times either the copy or the paste action crashes Frame
completely and I lose everything.
