Microsoft no longer speaks of frames, but they are quite useful! Unlike text
boxes, they can be part of a paragraph style, which is sometimes very useful.

Text boxes can be linked, which frames can't. On the other hand, frames let you
add footnotes (which text boxes don't) and they have support for more fields
than text boxes do.

"Frames" is the one that corresponds to what I called "Text Boxes" (an
earlier way of doing the same thing, which apparently is preferable
under certain circumstances).
