I've had lots of problems with frames in Word.  Here's how I deal with
it:

First, click the paragraph symbol on the standard toolbar to make all
special characters appear.  Next, move the frame's anchor (visible when
the text cursor is in the frame) to the paragraph you want the frame
next to.  Double-click the anchor, check the Lock Anchor field, and
change the vertical position to whatever you want.

I'd recommend that each frame be attached to a different regular
paragraph.
