Thanks for your help...I won't be doing that again, damn annoying all the same though! Oh well thems the breaks another angle on the learning curve...
Thanks again, Dave.
Heres a SUM for all....
Problem: After selecting polylines by mouse-pick method I then applied a ranges theme to them and saved my workspace. When I opened the .wor later I got ":102) Invalid frame id 10" errrors or variations of this error.
It isn't just me that has had this trouble either:

Hello David,
MapInfo should be able to preserve your thematic maps in the workspace. I've had "invalid frame" errors, but only when my thematics were based on queries created from mouse-pick selections. If Mapinfo has a selection statement to generate the query it seems to do okay, at least for me (MI5.5 on NT workstation sp3).

Solution: Jacques Paris did some testing of this and had the same problem, listed below are his solutions apart from the obvious 'Don't do it'....

David,
I think that Pam is right. I made a thematic map of a selection of objects,
created a layout with 2 frames (map and legend) saved the wor, closed
everything, reopened the wor and got the same message as you about frame 2
(the legend). As I am working with 5.5, I will say "that's it, you have to
do with it."
Pam is also right on another point: MI can store in the wor a query, not its
result but the "select..." generated by a query. When the wor is open, the
results are generated by the query and anything can be done with that
"table".
My recommendation : once you have made a selection for one set of objects,
"save as" the selection with a new name, add the new table to your mapper,
do the thematic on it.
Alternative: create a sql query that will pick up the objects of one set by
their "names" and use it for thematic 1. Repeat for each group.
Good luck in your "misery"
Jacques
